Quoted: “one-shot painting” stain technique of color field was the innovation of Helen Frankenthaler... the technique negotiated a common ground between Pollock’s heroic no-brush drip style and the expanses of saturated color favored especially by Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko.

This Seattle artist uses images to represent statistics such as the number of dollars the U.S. government spends every hour in Iraq.

Quoted: Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on. My hope is that images representing these quantities might have a different effect than the raw numbers alone, such as we find daily in articles and books.

I really like these, not for the simulated disaster/destruction, but because they seem like giant, raw 3D collages. Haven't seen them yet live, but hope to soon. Other samples: http://jameswagner.com/mt_archives/005280.html

Quoted: Felix Schramm creates the illusion of architecture gone awry. Made from drywall, paint, steel frames, and wood, his site-specific installations resemble...

On through September 16th...

Quoted: Known primarily for his beautiful paintings, drawings, and works on paper, Henri Matisse was also an accomplished sculptor whose radical style left lasting marks on modern art history. The first major U.S. examination of Matisse's sculpture in nearly 40 years, this exhibition assembles more than 150 works...
