PORTRAIT exhibition reviewed in Los Angeles Times
Mizota, Sharon. “When Words Are Pictures,” Los Angeles Times, July 16, 2010: D20 (illustrated).
Art review: 'Portrait' at Thomas Solomon Gallery
Thomas Solomon Gallery jumps on the John Baldessari bandwagon with a smart, themed group show of Conceptual art from (mostly) the '60s and '70s. The exhibition is titled simply “Portrait,” but in tune with the questioning, contrary tone of the era, there is nary a face to be seen — in fact, there is hardly anything to see but text... read more -

Bart Exposito: “Bends” at Thomas Solomon Gallery
Painter Bart Exposito has been pushing forward in one, very specific direction for nearly a decade and almost every stage of the journey along the way has been compelling. And now, like a spelunker following a narrow passage in a cave only to burst through to a brilliant new chamber, he has brought forth a sumptuous new body of work that is also a logical extension of everything he has done to date. Texas-born and LA-based, Exposito got his MFA at CalArts in 2000. Since then, he has been... read more -
ANALIA SABAN interviewed in Saatchi Online
LA-BASED ARTIST ANALIA SABAN DEBUTS AT JOSH LILLEY GALLERY IN LONDON
The young Argentinean painter Analia (say Anna-Lia) Saban has lived in Los Angeles for ten years, where she studied with John Baldessari at the University of California. She makes ingenious, metaphysical and yet humorous deconstructions of the elements of painting, adopting a different concept for each show. Previous works have included cutting out all the parallel lines from a Sol Lewitt and letting them fall as they would; sticking individual brushstrokes to the canvas with tape; and applying arrows to... read more -

BART EXPOSITO in Visual Art Source/Editorial Recommendations
Editorial: Recommendations | visual art source
Bart Esposito
at Thomas Solomon Gallery, Chinatown, Los Angeles
Recommendation by Michael Shaw
Continuing through June 12, 2010
With "Bends" Bart Exposito continues to develop his work in a more nuanced direction, with the inclusion of pastels and softer, gradated backgrounds, evolving from the more aggressively flat, imposingly graphic work of earlier in the decade. It's a refinement that's still not without an abundance of hard edges, and the cascades of... read more -

Art review: Bart Exposito at Thomas Solomon Gallery
May 14, 2010
For most of the past decade, Bart Exposito has been making sleek abstract paintings that bridge seemingly unbridgeable gaps -- between high-style fashion and low product-design, machine fabrication and hand craft, bemused spontaneity and earnest control. The populism of commercial taste collides with the elitism of informed aesthetics.
In the process Exposito has developed an irresistible body of post-Pop, Neo-Hard-Edge... read more -

Brad Eberhard: abstract art and abstract thoughts
The artist will muse about color and form and mix in thoughts on Plato and human consciousness.
By Holly Myers, Special to the Los Angeles Times
May 9, 2010
Brad Eberhard's studio, in the garage of the Lincoln Heights house he shares with two friends, sits at the top of a narrow, perilously steep street, with a spacious view across what is, with all the winter rain, a vividly green hillside. A spare and comfortably tidy space, with a worktable, several shelves of books, a pair of vintage... read more -

Krysten Cunningham: 3 to 4 @ Ritter Zamet, Unit 8, 80A Ashfield St - Whitechapel
To 15 May: www.ritterzamet.com
Look carefully to track down a first floor industrial unit just south of Whitechapel tube station, and you'll also find more of the recent trend towards sculpture with a video context. Krysten Cunningham has worked as a technician in a physics lab at the University of California over the past decade. In ‘Hypercube’ she re-narrated one of the lab’s educational films - of computer-generated cubes... read more -
KRYSTEN CUNNINGHAM in Time Out London
Time Out/London
By Sally O'Reilly
Posted: Thu Apr 8 2010
Attempting to visualise four dimensions is a bit like trying to eat beer: it is impracticable for those of us entrenched in the usual way of doing things. Perhaps this is what makes it such a chestnut for the artist who wishes to capsize or re-chart our assumptions.
Krysten Cunningham's video '3 to 4' is not so directly didactic though. Her choreography of non-professional dancers wearing bold red, green and blue outfits in the... read more
