Tom Berg to showcase 30 years of painting at Wade Wilson Art

"Curating a survey of nearly thirty years of an artist’s paintings, particularly after knowing and working so closely with that artist in both a professional and personal capacity, marks a genuine milestone in both my career and Tom’s. I believe this exhibit will reflect the unerring commitment of this man to his art as well as allowing us to witness the beauty of viewing paintings that span an artist’s life’s work.”  read more...

Jill Moser in the Hudson Review

Jill Moser in Art in America

"... the paintings are far from purely evanescent, forced into physicality by the confident gestures that made them, their blue forms quite various in shape and subtle in impact. However abstract, some suggest narratives in their internal transformations and, in the case where more than one form is present, their interactions."   read more...

Houston Press on Virgil Grotfeldt

Mark Williams reviewed in ARTNews

Like many artists influenced by monochrome abstraction, Mark Williams expresses himself mostly around the margins, delineating the characteristics of his shapes by enlivening their borders.  His recurrent motif in this show was a horizontal form abutting a strong vertical on one side of the canvas.  download the article now...
