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.”

Claire got the feature image for this Artforum write up- I think New Skin looks like a must-see. Daily Collector thinks she is top 20 status!

Two of my faves from undergrad, didn’t realize they had a show together in the late ’90s.

Unfortunately Irene is no longer with us- her work is still available through Hollis Taggart which is one of my favorite NYC galleries. Beautiful.

Saw El at Biennale and was over the moon to walk into NCMA and find that our state is now home to a great piece of his- his modality is similar to Elias Simes, another great hailing from Africa which NCMA has included in the permanent collection. Georgina is also an African artist, who’s work is included because, like El, it reminds me of another artist (Al Loving). Juxtaposing is fun.

Interesting write up about an artist who is moving in the “opposite” direction from Guston.

Hashtags plus IG is a fun way to meet new work (new to me- if you’re hip to these already, you know what’s up).
