Hyperallergic caught my eye with Leo’s work. The story of the Park Place Group is another wrinkle in the “primacy” of post-war New York… While some might think of Stella‘s (or Tony‘s) work, I’m more curious about how artists like Zin are taking this idiom forward.

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.

Lygia is getting a well deserved revisiting. I think would have shared a lot with the Neo-Concrete movement: “Neo-Concrete artists sought to create a multi-sensorial space which caused the spectator to feel more acutely their own body and existence.”

Odili Donald Odita is an abstract painter whose work explores color both in the figurative art historical context and in the sociopolitical sense.

I’ve followed Ted for a while on IG– glad to see he’s landed his inaugural solo show at Joshua Liner.

In his bio Brody lists “Painter” first, however I was drawn to his works on paper- I’d encourage you to check out his works on canvas, too. He also makes film (this one in particular caught my eye- it is not “retro” stylistically btw, it hails from ’89). In addition he writes about other work he likes.
