Kalm ventures into Chelsea to visit a couple of painting exhibitions
that represent the ends of the spectrums as far as figuration versus
abstraction go. When asked if he considers his work “realism” Mark
Greenwold refutes the designation and claims that he only needs
“reality” so he can see beyond it. Over the last thirty years the
artist has established himself as one of the premiere “hysterical
realists” in contemporary painting. This group of four pictures
represents the last three years of work. We’ll get some close-up views
and observe some of the extraordinary details that are impossible to see
with a still photograph.
Raul De Keyser is at the most ephemeral end of abstract painting, and his casual approach, while looking simple is actually a sign of an extraordinary sensitivity, and confidence. Working with rudimentary design, and paint thinned to the consistency of water, this Belgian abstractionist has captured the attention of many young New Yorkers. His influence is visible in the works of plenty of painters working in Bushwick. Mark Greenwold gives us a brief interview on the street, and a musical introduction is provided by Andrew the Artist.
