Stephen Westfall's Grid Paintings and Curatorial Projects at artcritical
The artcritical archives feature multiple entries on painter and critic Stephen Westfall, including his 2006 exhibition "The Material Sign" at Florence Lynch Gallery, which presented works by Craig Fisher, Phillis Ideal, Marthe Keller, and Gwenn Thomas. Westfall's own grid paintings are described as taking a serial risk, with color liberated to function in a kinetic way. Additional coverage includes a 2006 show at Howard Scott Gallery exploring white as a sum of all colors and a spiritual symbol. The archives also reference artists David Adamo, James Castle, Anna Betbeze, Matthew Day Jackson, and Nan Swid, as well as exhibitions "The Ghost in the Machine" at Lennon, Weinberg and "REVERIE" at Zürcher.
