James Kalm does what he does, and brings viewers along for a picture viewing pedal up the Bowery. We begin looking at a selection of deceptively simple “minimalistic” works by Denzil Hurley, at CANADA. These works emphasize the idea of the stretched canvas, multi-panel configurations of squares and rectangles, the most basic color combinations (black, blue, red and yellow) with a sensuous paint surface that implies a tactile facility that is masterful.
Rolling up the Bowery we pop into The Hole and ogle two shows that couldn’t be further from the formalism of Hurley; first the high keyed colorful digital world created by Jonathan Chapline in “Material Memory”, and second, the playful, and whimsical review of pets, neighbors and flowers splashily rendered by Misaki Kawai. Your half-assed reporter even brings viewers into the gallery’s private back room to preview thickly painted works by an upcoming exhibitor, Caroline Larsen. A musical introduction is provided by the Eric Paulin Ensemble. This program was recorded November 11, 2018.
