#SUPPORTARTISTS from @caroline_kaplowitz - FUSION XLIII 16” x 12” chalk, charcoal, gouache, pastel & watercolor on paper “I often avoid using the terms 'figuration' and 'abstraction' because I've always tried to have it both ways. I want the experience of looking at one of my paintings to be similar to the process of making the painting - you go from the big picture to something very intense and detailed, and then back again.” by Cecily Brown ~~~ I continue to envision my paintings as records of not just their particular visual subject, but also my own changing attitudes throughout the creative process. In this way, I don’t resist including myself as part of the work, while avoiding having exclusive control over it. I envision that doing so allows the work to convey the give and take of human relationships-both to nature, and to each other. #jerrysaltz #robertasmithnyt #berrycampbell #art_intro #artnow #askacurator #fineartist #davidzwirner #momaps1 #sfmoma #newhitney #artnyc #gagosian #sohogallery #whitneymuseum #museumofmodernart #jasonfarago #artmuseums #newmuseum #hauserwirth #emergingartists #artcollectors #ratedmodernart #artcurator #hollandcotter #worksonpaper #paintingonpaper #newart #artdealer https://www.instagram.com/p/BnPOt2WgSEA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rhhuvqqo3pzk

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Sam Gilliam. As @robertasmithnyt writes in the @nytimes, Gilliam was “best known for his lusciously stained Drape paintings that took his medium more fully into three dimensions than any other artist of his generation.”
Born in Mississippi, Gilliam grew up in Kentucky, before moving to Washington, DC, where he lived until his passing. Gilliam worked in various media to create abstract artworks that pushed and defied boundaries of shape, color and texture. He was likely best known for presenting paintings without the limitations of stretcher bars, freeing his canvasses from such binding restrictions, and instead draping them on the wall or from the ceiling. As an African-American artist in the nation’s capital at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, this was not merely an aesthetic proposition; it was a way of defining art’s role in a society undergoing dramatic change. Gilliam subsequently pursued a pioneering career in which experimentation remained the only constant. Inspired by the improvisatory ethos of jazz, his lyrical abstractions took on an increasing variety of forms, moods, and materials. Gilliam’s work is included in over fifty public collections. Among his numerous distinctions, Gilliam was the first Black artist to represent the U.S. at the Venice Biennale in 1972.
Gilliam’s permanent #MTAarts artwork “Jamaica Center Station Riders, Blue” was installed in 1991 at Jamaica Ctr-Parsons/Archer (E,J,Z) station. The wall-mounted piece, a painted aluminum sculpture, consists of two elements, a large ellipse and an armature that holds it. The sculpture was a natural progression from Gilliam’s signature Drape paintings into sculptural form, where aluminum has taken the place of a canvas. As Gilliam described of the work, the sculpture “calls to mind movement, circuits, speed, technology, and passenger ships...the colors used in the piece... refer to colors of the respective subway lines. The predominant use of blue provides one with a visual solid in a transitional area that is near subterranean.”
Our sincere condolences to Annie and to Sam’s children and their families. He was a great artist that will be dearly missed.

How many female Cubist painters can you name? I couldn’t think of any until I was introduced to French-Germán-Jewish painter Marcelle Cahn. Along its Sonia Delaunay and Sophie Tauber-ARP, she was among the earliest modernist painters of any sex. She showed with Leger, Gris, Picasso and Mondrian in one of the early Cubist exhibitions in Paris. “We were there all along” should be the title of the next exhibition centered on female artists. @robertasmithnyt #femaleartist #artoftheday #modernart #modernism #cubism #purism #paintingoftheday #peinture #kunst #cubisme https://www.instagram.com/p/ByYxAGXgAun/?igshid=q92h3mox7gih

"Just to say, its extravagance rewards thorough exploration for it introduces a rare thing: an early female modernist who worked steadily over the course of several decades. Restless, undeterred, Meret Oppenheim deserves a place in any modernist pantheon you can assemble."⁠ ⁠ Read up on 'Meret Oppenheim: My Exhibition' at @themuseumofmodernart — the first ever major transatlantic Oppenheim retrospective, and the first in the United States in over 25 years — in this excellent review by @robertasmithnyt @nytimes via linkinbio⁠ ⁠ May we also recommend the superb exhibition catalog edited with text by Nina Zimmer, Natalie Dupêcher and Anne Umland.⁠ ⁠ #meretoppenheim #surrealism @ninayeszimmer @anne_umland @kunstmuseumbern @menilcollection #meretoppenheimmoma https://www.instagram.com/p/ClTo0SoudIL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

https://youtu.be/mZ8p-u2GmL8 @elcleonardo @tulsaartistfellowship @electronicartsintermix @davidcastillogallery @the_breeder_gallery @robertasmithnyt Tomorrow at 1pm (CT)/2pm (ET) Lollypop (2006) will premiere online in its entirety on my YouTube channel! In The New York Times, Roberta Smith writes, "Kalup Linzy's fabulously nuanced (and lip-synched) new video, a collaboration with Shaun Leonardo, restates a vintage blues duet as a gay flirtation." The New York Sun's Deborah Garwood adds, "Messrs. Linzy and Leonardo's evocation of bygone performance styles brings to mind the poignant dance-theater performance politics of Bill T. Jones and Arnie Zane from the 1980s. In their absence, Mr. Linzy provides a welcome link to America's jazz and vaudeville past." Lollypop (1933) sung by Hunter and Jenkins (Coots Grant and Socks Wilson). Lip sync performed by Shaun Leonardo and Kalup Linzy.

Last week, @robertasmithnyt in the New York Times about @postmichael on @pavelzoubokfineart booth at the @thewintershownyc - "Pavel Zoubok combines old and new examples of trompe l'oeil, although the 20th century works triumph, starting with an extended mural of empty bookshelves - using actual wood that looks painted - by Michael Zelehoski." Congrats guys 👏👏👏 #michaelzelehoski #thewintershow #pavelzoubok #newyorktimes 🔥🔥🔥 #review #athanasiarevival #contemporaryart https://www.instagram.com/p/B8O0gB5ohmx/?igshid=11jg5c4dmt0vp

'Alex Katz: Gathering' is ON! ⁠ We couldn't be more excited for the exhibition catalog, releasing December 2022. ⁠ ⁠ @robertasmithnyt writes: "The show’s 154 artworks — 75 often large canvases, accompanied by around 79 tiny collages, oil studies, prints, drawings and painted-aluminum figurative cutouts — have been carefully selected and installed by the curator @kathbrinson to take full advantage of what the spiral does best: tell a simple chronological and increasingly revelatory tale. It shows us talent, determination and individual sensibility being molded into great art and maintaining its momentum over time. This is what a retrospective should do, and Katz’s work does this with extraordinary clarity, almost transparency. It should give everyone, especially artists, hope."⁠ ⁠ Read the full review via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #alexkatz #alexkatzgathering #alexkatzguggenheim @alexkatzofficial @guggenheim https://www.instagram.com/p/CkBUmN-O1BV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
