Mercedes Matter's Final Paintings Open at New York Studio School with Critical Analysis
Right now, you can check out the last pieces by Mercedes Matter at the New York Studio School, which runs from February 17 to May 7, 2005, at 8 West 8th Street. Art critic Hearne Pardee noted that her work carries a deep intensity, where the sharp angles hint at a kind of restrained sensuality within geometric forms. The school is located in a significant historical building that combines four Victorian townhouses with old carriage houses. This exhibition not only pays tribute to Matter but also features a film as part of the show.
