hardedgeabstraction – Painting After Art is Dead

Sophie Taeuber-Arp

Laurie Fendrich at Two Coats covers the recent survey of Sophie’s work at MOMA, pointing out that calling her “multidisciplinary” doesn’t quite encompass her.

Rakuko Naito

Hyperallergic says Naito’s Op-inspired abstractions might have been an oblique way of dealing with feelings of displacement after moving to the United States.

Tauba Auerbach

In Artforum’s November issue, “Tauba Medium,” an essay by Caroline A. Jones, heralds the opening of “S v Z,” the artist’s exhibition at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, on view from December 18, 2021 to May 1, 2022.“Meaning in written language is not only content but gesture,” Tauba Auerbach observes in this 2010 rumination on style and handwriting.

Ann Schaumburger

Ann is a New York City painter and colorist who, lately, has been intrigued by how repeating a plaid arrangement of four colors numerous times changes how color is seen.

HJ Bott

Hyperallergic says the Houston artist conveys a restless, open, and experimental temperament that is in dialogue with his better-known contemporaries.

Also, “damndazzled Generalizing specificity” (below) is an awesome title.

Mavis Pusey

In 1946, eighteen-year-old Mavis Pusey moved to New York from Jamaica to study at the Traphagen School of Fashion and, later, at the Art Students League. By 1969, she had worked in London as a patternmaker for Singer for nearly a decade. She then returned to New York to work at Robert Blackburn’s printmaking workshop—an important collaborative studio where artists were encouraged to experiment and freely exchange ideas.

More (interview in NYT when he was in the ’12 Whitney Biennial- looks like we share a view that only history is the filter of what is Art).

Stephen Westfall

Two Coats Gallery Guide is the best (except for the fact that I don’t actually live in NYC). Among many others they note Stephen’s newest at Alexandre.
