Judie Ledgerwood

I told you guys I love John Yau, and here’s proof! He’s got some words you should read about new work by this Pattern and Decoration icon (you should also read about Joyce if you aren’t familiar with this movement).

Olga de Amaral

Rosa Boshier Gonzàlez reviews Olga de Amaral at Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami for Burnaway, pointing at how she “contrasts geometric form with the meandering patterns of natural materials like cotton and horsehair.”

Mindy Shapero

Shapero transmutes negatives from past sculptural pieces into positive shapes that form the bedrock of her cosmic abstractions. Shapero’s repeating motifs—irregular rectangles and ovals that resemble “scars” or ruptures in the surface— are highlighted through the artist’s application of delicate gold leaf, an adornment dating back more than 8,000 years in the canon of art history.

Susan Smith

In March 2017 Susan moved from London to the peace and quiet of Herefordshire. Since then her work has been an absorption of new surroundings re-interpreted in her attic studio.

Mary Schiliro

pours acrylic color on strips of Mylar, which she then hangs a few inches in front of the wall. Sometimes perforated, the translucent strips create optical illusions—a cloud of orange hovering behind a pink strip, violet behind blue, green behind yellow. She has made other objects as well.

Lorenza Sannai

says that “painting based on geometry often expresses the individual’s atavistic need to rationalize” but that, for her, geometry is a means of discovering unexpected dimensions:

Ana Claudia Almeida

is a Brooklyn-based artist whose work spans painting, sculpture, video, and installation. Through material explorations with paper, fabric, plastic, oil pastels, and paint, Almeida investigates the tension between functionality and abstraction, interior and exterior, and the individual and the environment. Artsy notes she (like Suzanne and Teresa) is having a good moment.
