Abstract Views

The show I've been working on for months is finally up! Here's what you see when you enter the gallery:


I stand proudly in front of the title wall with my co-curator, Joan Levine Russell:

It was a great pleasure working with Joan on this show. There was no guarantee that the two of us would agree on the critical aspects of putting this exhibition together -- selecting work, designing and installing the show, etc. But it turns out that we have similar artistic sensibilities and opinions about art. We agreed on almost everything, and when we didn't, we negotiated successfully. We made a great team!
