C0NSTRUCTIONS OF CONSCIENCE: By Robert Sievert
Susan Grabel has amassed a formidable body of work
over the past 40 years. I never understood it as
an ongoing singularity until I viewed her work in
a retrospective now being shown at the Staten Island
Museum (January 29 through May 28, 2012). Susan is a
figurative sculptor of great ability. She can model
a figure with remarkable accuracy achieving form that
is definitely understandably human. . . .

Lee Bontecou at Freedman Art
Lee Bontecou, whose work was most recently seen in New York City at a retrospective at the sadly departed MoMA/Queens in 2004 and at MoMA proper in 2010, now has a small gem of a show at Friedman Art just off Madison Avenue at 73d Street in the Upper East Side, for the moment at least a locus of innovation and inspiration among the endless boutiques thereabouts which now seem mostly trapped in 1920s retro. The show will be there until February 11th. Read more here.... |

Alchemy & Inquiry by Donna Maria deCreeft
Wave Hill, with its botanical gardens and transcendental views of the Hudson, is the perfect venue for this fascinating exhibition by Philip Taaffe, Fred Tomaselli and Terry Winters. Sharing the idea of artist as magus or shaman, Taaffe, Tomaselli and Winters each manifest something unique about the Anima Mundi, or soul of the world. They manage to encompass and encode a long tradition of humanism in their work within individual stylistic techniques, uses of media and decorative patterning. The keys to their code are found in the connections between science and nature in terms of the microcosm and the macrocosm, the archetypal symbolism of the alchemical process, and the fractal dimension of Chaos theory.
