Patricia Treib's Debut Exhibition at John Connelly Presents in 2008
Patricia Treib's debut solo exhibition at John Connelly Presents in New York City closed on November 15, 2008. The 2006 Columbia MFA graduate presented abstract paintings characterized by clean, cheerful compositions that appeared deceptively simple. Her work featured discrete shapes sharply individuated through painterly and chromatic means, interlocking with seamless complexity reminiscent of late Juan Gris. Despite their formal clarity, the paintings displayed a succulence and spontaneity in Treib's touch. This combination created a pleasingly confounding sense regarding how these images were constructed in terms of both tempo and temper. The exhibition was reviewed in an artcritical CAPSULE in November 2008. The gallery was located at 625 West 27th Street in Manhattan.
