Elsa Hoffman

Below is “Ocean Panel (12/7/23-8/17/24 Marshallberg, NC)” in a really terrible photo which I took at Queen Street Magic Boat (where it was part of Death Planted a Garden). It is part of an ongoing project where Elsa bolts sheets of new steel onto a seawall at the North Carolina coast. The panels are submerged then revealed by tidal waters; the water, salt and air transforms the industrial surface; the metal becomes a clock, a landscape and map or graph of time passing in all its beauty and inevitable decay. According to their statement for the show catalog l, Elsa sees their role in this project as a curator or choreographer; setting a stage and parameters to capture the visual translation of a period of time; this project is a practice in embracing precious moments and also ritualistically letting them go.

Teak Ramos

Talia Shiroma at Two Coats of Paint thinks beauty has become an incidental quality in visual art over the last century, taking a back seat to, among other things, art’s expanded range of aesthetic values, its social and political dimensions, and capacity for novelty, and that Teak makes a case for beauty.

The Artsy Vanguard 2025 artists are breaking new ground with original work and gaining momentum through acclaimed solo shows, prestigious institutional exhibitions, representation with tastemaking galleries, and bold art fair presentations, among other art world accolades. Like past Vanguard artists, they’re ones to watch. Laís is included as is Emily.

Rita Blitt

Hyperallergic brings our attention to the Mulvane Art Museum in Topeka, Kansas, and “Women of Abstract Expressionism” as well as Rita’s practice and life (in the show paintings and drawings by Rita are featured alongside works by Elaine de Kooning, Helen Frankenthaler, Lee Krasner, and Joan Mitchell).

Feliza Bursztyn

like Leika Felizia’s work gets a nod from Artsy for (posthumous) inclusion at Frieze London. The first blog I ever wrote (about Julie) in October of 2018… was in the context of Frieze.

Gaby Collins-Fernandez

Jason says Gaby is concerned with the raw material of lived experience and the digital frequency that we personally stream. The writer (also a painter) and subject artist discuss further.

Lillian Schwartz

recently left us after an amazing career that included the ground-breaking Pixilation from 1970. Artforum allowed Rebekah Rutkoff’s 2016 essay Painting by Numbers out from behind the Paywall briefly (which recounts a pretty wild encounter with Dali).

Awilda Sterling-Duprey

For Burnaway’s series CRUSH, Michelle Santiago Cortés details the dance-drawings and improvisational mark-making of Awilda Sterling-Duprey. Throughout her decades-long career, Sterling-Duprey has paid close attention to how movement appears in painting and how dance lends itself to its own kind of painterly gesture. She has distilled elements of both disciplines to their constituent parts, which can be broken down into kinds of information: visual, spatial, tactile, sonic, and so on.
