These are sort of blowing my mind.

Jenny Eggleston
Flora fem Fauna is a must see in no small part due to Jenny who probably would not say her work is abstract- biomorphic and symbolic are fair adjectives. As a Gorky/Matta fan these hit the spot.

Sol LeWitt
What more can I say about the democratizing effect of non-mimetic modalities on the arts that would do justice to the rise of a night shift guard at MOMA to the rightful prominence Sol occupies as a conceptual artist*? Just read.
*Right- one should also note that, even though he abandoned the idea of a master narrative in art that preferenced painting, he didn’t abandon the notion that geometric forms are uniquely human.

Charline Von Heyl
I follow a hashtag for Charline’s work which is great because I get the whole ouvre (she just had a retro last year at the Hirshhorn).

Wayne Thiebaud and Harold Ancart
Artforum writes about Wayne’s newest– I didn’t recognize the image at first which I love (when a painter can still surprise). I thought of Harold because- in addition to a shared painter-ly-ness- he’s headed the “opposite” way (towards “figuration”, where Wayne is becoming more abstracted) with his newest.

Carol Bove
Carol’s work at Biennale was some of my favorite- she now has a new monograph! Would love to see her and Anna collaborate!

Sanford Biggers
Biggers is at it again, merging formalism and Afrofuturism (“an aesthetic that imagines the future of Africa and the African diaspora by reassessing the past through science-fiction tropes.“).
