Was featured in this piece on Artists influenced by Rothko– can’t believe I’ve never blogged about her Albers-influenced work before.

Daniel Buren and Philippe Parreno

Artforum notes their recent collaboration and that Parreno has often cited Buren’s influence, and Buren included Parreno in an exhibition he curated in 2007. Their work has been shown together on several occasions, and as of 2016 they are both represented by Kamel Mennour (where below occurred).

Cordy Ryman

A friend worded me up (as many have) about another artist making cubes.

Brie Russ

Artnews says Brie’s earthy sculptural installations at Night Gallery in LA question our role in the physical world.

Hélio Oiticica

Lison gallery shows (posthumously) some of Hélio’s work. This Brazilian was one of the originators of installation art and conceptual art, establishing an influence still felt today. A poet of the favelas, or makeshift slums, found in Rio de Janeiro, Oiticica created installations that were influenced by the social circumstances of his environment.

Olafur Eliasson

Colossal notes Eliasson’s new installation in downtown Chicago which appealed to me for what I think are obvious reasons.

More on Olafur who has a wide ranging voice and concept-heavy impulse as a creator.

Lydia has been a fav for a while. I’ve thought of her as related to Light and Space with work like below, and much of her work is also minimalist as Sophie Haigney at Artsy notes when calling our attention to the rich history of women artists whose work is of this modality.

Jessica Drenk

Colossal as always brings the wow.

Otto Zitko

For an artist whose bright oil stick lines often explode, uncontained, across the walls and ceilings of galleries, it feels fitting for this moment—one of physical distance, meditation, and uncertainty—that the works in Otto Zitko’s exhibition “In Times Like These” are anxiously restrained to canvas size…

Ross Manning

Artforum wrote some words about a survey of this significant Aussie’s which inspired me to learn more about the work he does which is as much about sound as visual experiences.

Maya Freelon

If you didn’t know of Maya already “yes” Triangle legends Nnenna and Phil Freelon are her parents (her brother is no slouch either). Walter gives her upcoming show at CAM Raleigh a shout out.

Kelly Sheppard Murray

We don’t have a huge local art scene in Raleigh, so I’ve had the chance to meet Kelly and see her approach to teaching in a crit format. More and more.
