Jonathan Ryan Storm

Jonathan has some solid work in a solid show.

#jonathanryanstorm

Posting about Doug Wheeler made me think about other artists who work in the realm of creating experience that I find to be a cousin of formalist painting. Most of us know this Brit from his musical oeuvre. What he says about his brand of empty formalism is right on, and we share a modality where some artist license/control is measured against chance as an actual tool.

Lygia Clark

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.”

Augustine Kofie

Interesting to read that Augustine’s newest work is a nod to high modern jazz since they look like they jumped out of the early 70s- I’ve also nodded to shared modalities between abstraction and jazz myself. And there’s a soundtrack for them!

Donald Judd

The feature image for this Artforum announcement caught my eye since it’s new to me, although I’m familiar with Judd’s 2D work. I am inspired to spend some time reading this week some of what Judd “wrote extensively on the importance of land preservation, empirical knowledge, and engaged citizenship.”
