womanartists – Painting After Art is Dead

Celia Johnson

You know you look at a lot of art when you get excited about seeing an artist you think is new to you in another artist’s feed and then you search them on IG and you already follow them.

Alice Trumbull Mason

Hyperallergic shouts out a new monograph of Alice’s career as a high Modernist master.

Ann Thomson

Is, like Gemma and Kudditji, an Australian icon of abstraction.

Audrey Stone

I’ve followed Audrey’s IG feed for some time- the recently completed dyptich below is cleverly (and appropriately) title “No Touching.”

Nanda Vigo

Nanda gets a shout out from Artforum (unfortunately because her six decade career as a conceptual and installation artist came to and end this month).

Kaveri Raina

The online edition of Artforum points to Kaveri’s newest which inspired me to look for more.

Katy Crowe and Coleen Sterritt

I can see why Ron Linden paired Katy’s paintings and Coleen’s sculptures at Los Angeles Harbor College Fine Arts Gallery (as does Two Coats)- if meticulously flippant isn’t a phrase it should be.

Jeanne Tremel

Structure and Imagery notes Jeanne’s newest at #courttreegallery.

Diana al-Hadid

Diana is Syrian-born and NY-based. I first encountered her work at the Armory Show.

Candida Alvarez

Artsy notes Candida’s newest work, which has left the wall- like Lien she is a Joan Mitchell foundation alumn.

#candidaalvarez

Artforum- rightfully- notes Flora’s newest from her time in Venice in a space set up by #victorimiro “for invited artists to spend extended time in the historic city and make new bodies of work“. These are definitely abstractions although not clear she would call them nonrepresentational. Reminds me of Erin’s brushwork.

Pen Dalton

I’ve been glad to know about Prosaic’s IG feed. My most recent “find” there is Pen.

Gemma Smith

A few pages after learning about Ann Cathrin, I ran across the image below. Reading and looking more reveals she works through concepts as distinct bodies of work, changing her compositional strategy from time to time.

Myra Greene

Artforum has words about Myra’s current series of textually deep work that underscores, I think, the potential of non-representational work to carry potent symbolism:

“Piecework refers to labor paid according to the number of items produced rather than the amount of time spent on the job. Often associated with the ruthless economic exploitation of the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, this system …is sadly making a comeback—thanks to its versatility in allowing employers to get around minimum-wage and other labor laws…”

Ann Cathrin November Høibo

Was reading the print edition of Artforum when the image below grabbed me. Which lead to reading this interesting interview about the themes that- like the disparate materials she uses- are woven, literally, into her work.
