artwork and compelling storytelling that brings this genre to life.
The 75
artworks on view in Gridwork 1974 - 1989 include the series «Regression,» one of Gaines's first explorations of mathematical and numeric systems; «Walnut Tree Orchard» and «Faces,» which use photography as a foundation for
graphic deconstructions; and «Motion: Trisha Brown Dance,» a collaboration with the world - renowned choreographer and dancer.
Three exhibitions currently
on view in New York City — Stuart Davis: In Full Swing, Carmen Herrera: Lines of Sight, and the Hilma af Klint exhibition that is secreted within The Keeper exhibition at the New Museum — provide object lessons
on the necessity of seeing «in person»
artworks that in reproduction appear flat and
graphic in a way that stays fixed at the level of an image with no scale so that when looking at the images most people, particularly those brought up entirely within the regime of Instagram would not see why they should see the works and, further, might not be able to see the work when in front of it because many people now see exclusively through the lens of their smart phone.
