Jackie Gendel Artist Talk at Thomas Erben Gallery on October 1, 2016
Jackie Gendel will deliver an artist talk at Thomas Erben Gallery on Saturday, October 1, 2016, at 4 PM. The event takes place at 526 West 26th Street, 4th Floor in New York. This talk accompanies her current exhibition at the gallery, where her paintings demonstrate a tension between decorative charm and visual instability. In 2006, Ken Johnson described Gendel's work in the New York Times as featuring smudgy colors and a sweet sense of humor, creating smart and sensuous semi-abstract riffs on Modernist portraiture. The gallery's press release notes that her paintings morph and change, confounding their initial categories. One work on view is "L'Age d'Or" from 2015, an oil on canvas measuring 84 by 72 inches. The talk offers viewers a chance to hear directly from the artist about her practice.
