Matthew Marks Gallery Spring Exhibitions Feature Charles Ray, Alex da Corte, Atta Kwami, Sean Scully
Matthew Marks Gallery presented a series of exhibitions earlier this spring, including a survey of a photographer's work that remained on view through April 30. The photographer's images captured emotional depth and poised compositions through subtle formal modulation and streamlined forms. Additional exhibitions featured works by Charles Ray, Alex da Corte, Atta Kwami, and Sean Scully. Critiques and reviews were published by Martha Kley, Travis Pardee, and Martha Schwendener, covering artists such as Matt Bollinger, Nayland Blake, Sergei Tcherepnin, and Sylvie Fleury. Annabeth Rosen contributed a psychedelic ceramic piece to the Summer of Love for Ceramics. The gallery's programming also included mordant late works and reflections on the life of a muse, while posing questions about the inherent anti-climax of trompe-l'oeil painting. A true independent with a pastoral sensibility was noted for existing within a landscape.
