ARTIST NEWS & REVIEWS:

In the August 5, 2010, New York Times article Varieties of Abstraction ROBERTA SMITH writes: ... An energizing place to finish is Markus Linnenbrink's NOMATTERWHEREYOUGOTHEREYOUARE, a site-specific painting in the tiny storefront gallery Number 35. Mr. Linnenbrink has covered the walls, ceiling and floor with narrow bands of vibrant color that all seem to rush toward a vanishing point in one corner that they never quite reach, at least not in unison. The colors on the floor are often shaded: green to orange, gray to violet. The colors on the walls drip and splatter over one another. It’s a great space to stand in and think about abstraction as an infinitely renewal energy source.

Robert Hudson began making small scale sculpture, under 20 inches, about one year ago. There are not many of these works - they have the attributes of the larger sculpture, yet the size is intimate and the price reflects the small scale. We have a few of these jewels on view in my office, so stop by to see them.
