The archaic and obscure symbols found throughout his
paintings are the tools by which he reaches into this surreal

Laura Newman's
paintings combine geometric delineations
of space, ephemeral color fields, dynamic lines and organic forms, resulting in atmospheric images evocative

beyond.
They evoke

of the canvas and presumably
beyond, directly challenging the formalist orthodoxy that defined
painting as a self - contained object or surface.
The delicate veil
of painted swoops and swirls that sweep across the surface extend to all edges

From the first major U.S. exhibition
of long - overlooked abstract painter Hilma af Klint and the biggest U.K. show
of pioneering video artist Joan Jonas, to the passionate

space sculpture by contemporary artist Trevor Paglen, here are 12 shows opening across the globe — and
beyond — that you won't want to miss.

Against the historical background
of mural

paintings, picture walls and wall reliefs, which went
beyond the frame
of an individual image in order to take an entire wall or interior
space into view.
Instead
of seeing Czanne's «The Bather» first thing when you enter the second - floor galleries, where «People» unfolds, you see an expansively open
space with only two works: Aristide Maillol's luxuriant cast - lead female nude, «The River» (1938 - 1943), and
beyond it, Barnett Newman's abstract
painting, «Vir Heroicus Sublimis» (1950 - 51).
These recent
paintings are astral - like, conflating lyrical abstraction with Op Art and hard - edged
painting to create portals with a view
of some great abyss or boundless
space beyond.

of space refers strongly to the formalists concern for edge but go
beyond that in the regard for image — the content therein alluding to a personal mythology
of forms which are delivered through a primitive, gestural handling
of the
paint.
An alchemist
of sorts, Quaytman moved abstract
painting beyond the mundane into the realm
of cognitive understanding through a heightened sensory involvement with materials and an ultimate clarity
of space.
Radiating from a central point, this
painting traces a network
of dotted lines that seems to expand
beyond the edges
of the
painting into the infinity
of space.
Attempting to locate themselves somewhere between the
painting / apartment, the negative
space, and their own bodily experience as they navigate the virtual
space, viewers enter a fourth dimension that goes
beyond traditional conventions
of a physical encounter with a static,
painted object in
space and time.
Beyond the obvious uses — as a place to jot down reminders or a spot where kids can draw on the walls — we like the idea
of painting pantry jar lids to identify what's inside, creating chalkboard patches on terracotta pots to identify the seeds you planted, and (
of course)
painting a pegboard and outlining designated
spaces for tools.
