Must See Painting Shows: June

Summer is upon us. As is typical, many galleries around the country are mounting group exhibitions. There are a surprising number of first-rate solo exhibitions on view, many of which stretch into July. I am happy to see more than two-dozen New American Paintings’ alumni in the mix, including Todd Chilton at Feature, Inc. in New York City, who will be the cover artist for Issue #101.

In a coast to coast face off of contemporary masters, be sure not to miss Brice Marden’s elegant show at Matthew Marks Gallery in New York and Wayne Thiebaud’s exhibition at John Berggruen Gallery in San Francisco. For many, Marden is the greatest living abstractionist and Thiebaud the greatest living painter of objects.

Weekly Recap (week of May 7)

Ok, another week bites the dust. I admit I'm getting really worried that I'm running out of ways to introduce the Weekly Recaps. I mean, at some point, it's going to get redundant, if it hasn't already. Regardless of the lackluster introductions, the content of our blog is always changing, which means these recaps will ultimately never get old. Right?
