Artist Walter De Maria passes at 77
From The Lightning Field, 1977, to The 2000 Sculpture of 1992, Walter De Maria was a dynamic artist whose work seemed to cover many bases including earthworks, Conceptualism, and Minimal pursuits; often executed in a strikingly large scale.

My work reflects emotion and passion for life and for different cultures. I was born in Paris grew up between Munich and the south of France. I now live in Luxembourg and I’m fascinated by New York and Singapore. My Italian heritage loves to express itself with a balance between the effect of strong painting knife […]

The Land Before and After Time
Summer group shows are often a pleasant and decorative affair, like the non-demanding beach books of summer reading, but not this one. Dynamic and diverse, this exhibition is a bracing tonic of impassioned personalities and their abundant imaginations. It will be a pleasurable detour from your summer reading. Here are a few of my favorites: […]
Claes Oldenburg: The Sixties
Claes Oldenburg is an artist without flamboyance or careful propriety. He is thus very American, and being American, it is not strange that he was born in 1929 outside of America, actually in Sweden. He should have explained in 1960 that, “I make my work out of everyday experiences, which I find as perplexing and […]
