(Drivebycuriosity) - Manhattan`s Chelsea district is always worth a visit, there are so many classy art galleries. Last week I took a look into
Greene Naftali gallery (508 West 26th Street
greenenaftaligallery ). They have a show called: Painting: Now & Forever, Part III (through August 17, 2018
gallery). According to the press release they have "over forty international artists working in a wide array of styles who together prove the vitality of contemporary painting". The first exhibition was in 1998, the second in 2008. I display here my favorites from the show, a very subjective selection as usual.
The visitors above are admiring 2 paintings by
Nicole Eisenman: "Luck Lines" (2018, oil on canvas) & T.B. T (2018, oil and collage on canvas).
Above this paragraph you can see 2 paintings by
Allan D'Arcangelo: "Without Sound Two" (1982 Acrylic on Canvas) & "Pi in the Sky" (1981-1982 Acrylic on Canvas) followed by
Ed Clark`s "TBC (HS #94)" (2005 Acrylic on canvas).
