In my view, non-objective and abstract art have a special role in describing non-Newtonian reality—a reality in which our five senses are of little use.
A new major monograph titled “Al Held: Selected Works 1956–2004” has just been published by White Cube, London, 2022. This large format scholarly publication features 133 color illustrations and texts by Robert Storr, Michael Craig-Martin, and Daniel Belasco, plus a conversation between Held and Irving Sandler.
Now on view: Al Held’s 1963 masterwork “Genesis” (center) at Kunstmuseum Basel, Gegenwart. On view for the first time since the early ‘90s, the 28-foot painting is seen here alongside work by Carl Andre, Sarkis, Bruce Nauman, André Valensi, and Michael Heizer.
River Valley Arts Collective and the Al Held Foundation are pleased to announce Linear Dimensions, an exhibition of new work by Andrew Lyght in which the vibrant colors and fluid lines that define his practice appear on intricately crafted wooden structures and works on paper.
