NYUAD show on the 1950s ‘Downtown’ New York art scene is a fairy tale story

The National Nick Leech October 4, 2017 Untitled (Blue/Green) (1961) by Tadaaki Kuwayama. Courtesy Tadaaki Kuwayama New NYUAD Art Gallery show highlights the role of artist-founded and -run spaces in building an art community. A process that resonates in the UAE Around the mid-point of the last century, three very different birds could be found in New York, each of which was the product of a singular and very modern vision, and each of which attested to the city’s new-found

Op Infinitum: 'The Responsive Eye' Fifty Years After (Part II)

Click here to view catalog THE RESPONSIVE OTHER EYE: OPTICAL ABSTRACTION IN AND OUT OF MOMA By Peter Frank “The Responsive Eye,” the New York Museum of Modern Art’s controversial 1965 survey of a new kind of “optical” abstraction, was not the instigator, or even definer, of this abstraction, but merely its critical and popular apotheosis.

At first dominated by the theater of metaphysical narrative that defined abstract expressionism, this trajectory of extravagant invention took a more formal turn around 1960 The production of imagery gave way to the production of unencoded, optically self-sufficient structures, man

Ward Jackson

Ward Jackson, Virginia River Series - Powhatan, 1970, Acrylic on linen, 36" x 36" Ward Jackson was a dependable presence on the New York scene, friend to nearly everyone, but few knew his work as a painter. His quiet, almost studious approach to abstract and representational painting alike endeared him more to fellow painters than to noisier scenemakers - a shame, as it relegated the substantial, even moving work of this dedicated painter to group shows and small, artist-run

1960s Revisited - Catalog

Click here to view catalog The 1960s: Other Trajectories by Peter Frank The ‘60s aren’t what they used to be. We know these fabled years constitute a decade of rapid and continuous change, but we’re learning that we don’t really know the half of it. In American art, for instance, the decade of Pop Art and Minimalism was also a decade of hard-edge and gestural abstraction, painterly figuration, and eccentricities of many kinds. The decade of New York’s pre-eminence also saw th
