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...

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.
