What most struck me about paintings such as Untitled (Red Butterfly)(2002) and others was how Grotjahn had commandeered Newman's totemic and cabbalistic «zips» - those declarative vertical stripes judiciously deployed to rend and reconcile oppositional forces on the picture plane Old Testament - style - and so handily retro - fitted them with the lollipop palette of Kenneth Noland, the geometrically compartmentalized painterliness of Alfred Jensen and the segmented cartwheeling compositions of early 1960s Frank Stella.
