Andrew Seto, Capsule, 2010, oil on canvas, 25 x 30 cm, 9.8 x 11.75 inches
Last week, my painter/writer colleague Sharon Butler posted a nice little write-up of our show on her blog Two Coats of Paint:
Inside the painter's head
The paintings that Stephanie Theodore has assembled in "Three" each seem to suggest a narrative, but rather than recounting dreary visual facts, the painters opt for a more mysterious approach, ultimately veering away from storytelling toward more interesting painting propositions. Prizing foggy recollections over photographic memory, artists Damien Flood, Joy Garnett and Andrew Seto reveal their mysteriously absorbing painterly worlds in a wonderful exhibition of small-scale work.
"Three" is up through June 19, 2011. Gallery hours: Fri-Sun, noon-6pm.
For info:
"Three: Damien Flood, Joy Garnett, Andrew Seto," Theodore:Art, 53 Mercer Street, New York, NY.
