Dorothea Rockburne at the Parrish Art Museum
“Ms. Rockburne’s work is nourished by a desire to infuse the act of painting and process of constructionist assemblage with mathematical and scientific conceptualism.”
Dorothea Rockburne, Narcissus, 1985. Oil on gessoed linen, 92 ½ x 123 x 6 ⅜ in. Private Collection, New York
Author: Tony Zaza
The Parrish Art Museum is a great excuse to trek out to the beach, especially on a non-beach day. Nestled in Southhampton, it is soon to inhabit a nearby cornfield where it will have the impact as a kind of huge incubator of contemporary art. Its design mirrors turn of the century dairy farms, but its purpose is of a different kind of nurturing: the nurturing of the art marketplace and the artists of the South End. While it will continue to have shows like the current Dorothea Rockburne survey that fulfills part of its mission to rediscover overlooked artists, it most certainly will nurture both the established and the underrepresented.

Elena del Rivero’s 9/11 Commemorative at the New Museum
“She was in her native Spain on the day of the terrorist attacks, but when she returned home, she began the task of carefully salvaging and cataloging the office memos, personal notes, and other documents that had blown through the collapsed windows of her loft.”

André Kertész – Photographs
“Although he was technically very accomplished, his photography was inextricably linked to his own inner life, affirming the overriding importance of emotion in what was an independent quest, which can be compared to a private visual diary …”
André Kertész
Author: Martin-Gropius-Bau
Today, 25 after his death, André Kertész (1894-1985) is famous for his extraordinary contribution to the language of photography in the 20th century. His exceptionally long career spanned three different places, and he suffered from having to cope with three cultures and three languages: in Hungary, where he was born but was unable to fulfil his ambition; in Paris, where he rapidly became one of the key figures of avant-garde photography; and finally in New York, where he spent most of his life, but where his approach met with incomprehension (symbolized by the Melancholic Tulip of 1939).
