Jane Freilicher's Recent Paintings and Prints at Tibor de Nagy Gallery in New York

Jane Freilicher's exhibition 'Recent Paintings and Prints' at Tibor de Nagy Gallery in New York City ran from March 10 to June 3, 2011, with an extension from originally advertised dates. The show featured new works, including some completed just weeks before, such as 'Bouquets' and 'Window', both from 2011, which display her mastery of color and composition. Freilicher, often compared to Giorgio Morandi, focuses on still lifes set before windows, blending delicate subjects with visceral power. Thomas Nozkowski, whose work was in the gallery's prior 'Object/Image' show, expressed admiration for being exhibited alongside her. The paintings, like 'Study in Blue and Gray' from 2011, rearrange cityscapes and still lifes with subtle hues, capturing mid-Atlantic weather and Manhattan's ghostly skyline. Two color lithographs from 2010 and 2011, including 'Light Blue Above', were also on view, though their clarity contrasts with Freilicher's typically varied touch. A 1986 monograph from an exhibition at the Currier Gallery of Art in Manchester, New Hampshire, includes an essay by John Ashbery, who praised artists who embrace the tentative and unforeseen, aligning with Freilicher's intuitive approach. The gallery is located at 724 Fifth Ave, between 56th and 57th streets, with contact number 212 262 5050.
