Mark Greenwold Curates 'Endless Love' Group Exhibition at DC Moore Gallery

exhibition · 2026-04-22

Mark Greenwold curated the group exhibition 'Endless Love' at DC Moore Gallery, featuring his own work alongside artists who share a preoccupation with labor-intensive craft. The show ran until February 7, 2004, at 724 Fifth Avenue at 57th Street in New York. Greenwold's new painting 'The Need to Understand' (2002-03) incorporates visual motifs from peers Lucas Samaras, James Siena, and Chuck Close. The exhibition included works by Ken Price, Thomas Nozkowski, David Brody, Charles LeDray, Xenobia Bailey, Alexi Worth, and Hilary Harkness. Greenwold's curatorial statement framed the show as a manifesto defending compulsive craftsmanship against modernist taboos. His own paintings are noted for their hyper-detailed, miniature brushwork that requires years to complete. The exhibition previously appeared in the New York Sun on February 5, 2004. Greenwold had previously curated 'The Risk of Existence' at Phyllis Kind Gallery in SoHo in 1998.
