Jon Schueler

I first noted Jon recently when reading about CA->NY: Post-War Migration of Abstract Expressionists. See more.

RJ Messineo

Canada Gallery put RJ front and center at Art Basel-Miami. You may have seen her in Bomb, too.

Charles Seliger

The Mint museum in Charlotte has a very nice piece by Charles. I also made a Pinterest gallery.

Gotta love a show titled Soft Serve

One of the images from Rose’s My Art Show series from this Hyperallergic write up caught my eye, and glad it did. Using found materials is a cousin, I think, of the sort of automatism that is the root of much abstract painting. Her mimic pieces are great examples of true abstraction as well, I find, and also utilize found objects.

Brice Marden

Glad to see he’s still at it.

Michael West

Great retrospective of Corrine Michelle West’s work is up at Hollis Taggart. I think it is the essence of Modernist conceptions of “the Artist” (and truly American) in spirit that so many women made such great work during this era despite knowing it might never be seen let alone influence the canon. They were all painting a new world.

Dorothy Hood

“The exhibition Illuminated Earth asks audiences to consider not only Hood’s dynamic and commanding murals as the thought-provoking pieces they are, but also how artistic legacies are made and remade over time.”

Kathryn McNaughton

I’ve followed Kathryn on IG for a while (I’m not alone with 39k follows)- she’s shown with Heather Day and recently made below as part of a residency at Pada Studios.
