Vasari 21: The Critical Edge

January 22, 2019

When an artist I’m interested in suggests something, I respond to that, sometimes to my benefit. Robert Taplin, whose work and writing I’ve followed for years, with enthusiasm, recently suggested I see a show by Jan Cunningham, a painter whose work I didn’t know. Turns out she makes subtle, inventively colored geometric abstractions that play different kinds of drawing against the memory of a grid. I’m very grateful to Robert for alerting me to her work and I hope to see more in the future.
