Review & Interview

Sunday, December 19, 2010

Our current exhibition, “Mira Schor: Paintings From The Nineties To Now“, got a review by Los Angeles Time’s Christopher Knight:

“…the schematic, profile style also harkens back to the hieroglyphic figures of ancient Egypt, who speak a mysterious language that continues to fascinate. A better analogy than that for the place of painting in today’s hyper-digital universe is difficult to imagine.”

–Christopher Knight

The complete review can be found in LA Times’ Culture Monster section.

Added: also check out a slideshow on The Huffington Post.

I also want to share one of my favorite paintings recently brought in by Lisa Adams. To me it has Zen-like quality, and yet upon a closer look you find a practical joke about to be played out. Beautifully painted and quirky!
