Gloria Klein

Gloria came of age in 1970s New York and played a vital role in many artist-based initiatives in SoHo and on the Lower East Side. Her paintings can be read as Minimalist, Conceptual, and systems-based, but they are also indebted to the burgeoning support for “women’s work,” the Pattern & Decoration movement, and the Criss-Cross artists.  Hyperallergic said Unwinding Unbinding at Anat Ebgi was one of the 10 shows to see in Los Angeles this June.

Continuing with my favs from Artfields

About this installation, Ian says “Crosscut (Log-pile), is a reflection on one of the most quietly obvious signs of human incursion in the natural world: a crosscut tree stump. By utilizing brightly colored handmade paper and neon gel pens to produce the drawings, I am drawing attention to the artificial and unnatural state of the remnant of an individual tree. All images are sourced from either on-site observations and photographs, or from cross-sections of trees recovered after a large culling of forested areas throughout the Lowcountry of South Carolina; the paper itself is mostly from the same species of trees depicted in the drawings.”

Alfred Jensen

is the inspiration for The Apex is Nothing at Pratt Manhattan which features Xylor and others.

Alfred studied painting at the San Diego Fine Arts School and in Munich under Hans Hofmann. After moving to the United States in 1934, his patron Saidie Alder May encouraged him to pursue his interest in color theory and pattern.

Angela Heisch

In Angela Heisch’s abstract paintings, deep blues and warm taupes swirl together in bold spirals of light and dark, hard edges and soft gradations. Her enigmatic forms resemble slices of plants, flowers, living beings, and even the cosmos; they vibrate with energy that’s both familiar and otherworldly.
