Taking in Clyfford Still's PH-247, 1951, affectionately known as "Big Blue," for the Clyfford Still Catalogue Raisonné. #clyffordstill #abstractexpressionism #catalogueraisonné

Wanda Pimentel, Involvement Series, 1968, vinyl on canvas, 130 × 98 cm (Art Institute of Chicago). Pimentel: “ I think my issues are the issues of our time: the lack of perspective for people, their alienation. The saddest thing is for people to be dominated by things.”

If you see this repost with something red from your gallery

Kate Shepherd, Party Over, Red, 2024, oil and enamel on panel, 52 x 46 in (132.1 x 116.8 cm)

A few close details of Mark Rothko watercolors at the NGA in D.C. this time last year. I loved this show.

François Rouan, Mauve, rose et vert, 1970, oil on braided canvases, 1970, 202 × 150 cm. On view at Templon, New York, through March 1.

Writing about Yves Klein's sculpture for an upcoming talk in Nice. I've always liked this pairing at the Frederick R. Weisman Foundation in Los Angeles: Klein's Victory of Samothrace, 1962, and Kenneth Noland's Across, 1964.

Gorgeous small-format paintings by Alison Hall on view at Pazo Fine Art, D.C., through March 15. All are oil, graphite, and plaster on panel, 12 1/4 x 8 1/4 inches.

Still thinking about the Julije Knifer exhibition recently at Frank Elbaz, Paris. I like Knifer's 1983 description of his meanders: "I did not paint to have these paintings serve someone else, these paintings served me ... My painting is, in a sense, a way of behaving."

Last days for "Huguette Caland, les années parisiennes (1970-1987)," at Mennour, Paris, through January 25. This is Guerre Incivile, 1981 (oil on linen, 155 x 155 cm / 61 x 61 in). A great painter and a great show.

One year ago today: Installing "Simon Hantaï: Unfolding" at Timothy Taylor, New York.

Paul Wallach, Truth That, 2019 (wood, lead, canvas, cloth, paint, 7 7/8 x 7 7/8 x 4 inches). Almost a mini-Morellet from the front, but full of surprises. At Fergus McCaffrey, New York, through March 1.

Beautiful Kate Shepherd watercolors in her must-see show at Galerie Lelong, New York. Through February 8.

Following the great Iria Leino show at Harper's Chelsea 512, I had the pleasure of visiting the loft in SoHo where the Finnish-born painter lived and worked from the 1960s until her death in 2022. A fascinating time capsule, stuffed to the gills with work from all phases of her New York career.

Snapped this pic of @sharonbutler.bsky.social and Chris Martin deep in discussion the other day before Chris's opening at Timothy Taylor. Sorry to pap you Sharon but I love this image :)
