Paul Kasmin Gallery presents never before seen works by Hungarian-born artist Simon Hantai. Hantai’s work can be distinguished by his signature technique “pillage,” or folded, tied, and dyed un-stretched canvas. His work interplays between positive and negative space, resulting in both geometric and botanical patterns. A massive figure in Europe, his work deserves more recognition here in America. Go see this show.
