The Painted World,
P.S. 1, Long Island City, NY

Oct 23, 2005–Mar 13, 2006

Organized by Bob Nickas

The Painted World includes paintings by important historical figures such as Paul Feeley (1910-1966), Yayoi Kusama, and Myron Stout (1908-1987); Moira Dryer (1957-1992) and Steven Parrino (1958-2005), two influential artists whose lives were cut short; and younger artists who are seriously pursuing abstraction, such as Mark Grotjahn and Ann Pibal. Alex Hay, an artist best known for his paintings of the 1960s, and who after a long hiatus began to exhibit his work again in the last two years, will be represented by a painting shown for the first time entitled Old Green 05. New works are being made for the exhibition by Philip Taaffe and Dan Walsh, while Alex Kwartler will create a site-specific wall work and painting installation. Other artists in The Painted World include: Wayne Gonzales, Mark Grotjahn, Joanne Greenbaum, Mary Heilmann, Cannon Hudson, Lucas Kelly, Bill Komoski, Chris Martin, Olivier Mosset, Michael Scott, John Tremblay, Alan Uglow, and Chuck Webster.
