graphicpainting – Painting After Art is Dead

James Faure Walker

Instandloveland is a recent discovery for me. This is an older article by Matt Dennis and John Bunker on Jame’s ‘Paintings and Sightings’ at Clifford Chance, London last Fall.

Sara Flores

Looking closely at Sara Flores’s paintings, one can see that in the perfectly symmetrical patterns that extend on the canvas there is a digital infinity that abounds. Through the simplicity of linear geometric forms, Flores’s work echoes the profusion and endlessness of nature: fractal-like shapes multiply and spill over the canvas as if to reveal the imperceptible fabric of the world.

Cheyney Thompson

At the core of Cheyney’s practice is an analytical approach and unwavering commitment to the examination of painting—its production, distribution and presentation in contemporary conditions.

Ramon Bonilla

A notion of space drawn from Ramón’s imaginary recalling of particular places provides the context and imagery for these pictures of the here, there and nowhere. He deals with architecture in a similar way to Kevin.

Suzanne Wright

Wright’s works in Gateways propose a contemporary “feminist alchemy,” forging alternative frames of reference and symbology with new perspectives that attempt to lead us to a re-vitalized kind of perception, equality, and empowerment.

Alison Hall

Hyperallergic says Hall makes no attempt to entice the viewer to begin looking and to look again, letting her methodical craft compel viewers to reflect upon their experience.

Mario Mankey

Mario Mankey is a Spanish contemporary artist who was born in 1985 in Valencia. His work pushes the boundaries of abstraction and realism. Nothing seems too big of an idea for Mario and he continues to push the limits of his own practice everyday. He shows at Mirus along with Mars-1 and Seleka.

Mars-1 – Mirus

Mars-1 seems to me to be channeling Mata.

Minjung Kim

The nature of Kim’s work is such that it requires hours, often days of calm solitude, a room of her own, as her watercolours, calligraphy and paper works each require the exercise of extreme control, both of her breathing or of her brush.

William T. Williams

The National Gallery of Art has a recording on SoundCloud of About Abstraction: A Conversation with Melvin Edwards, Sam Gilliam, and William T. Williams that is well worth the listen.
