I am pleased to announce that the work of Tom Judd will be the second of a rotating series of exhibitions I coordinate at 527 Madison Avenue (at 54th Street, the link to the show is here). Tom is based in Philadelphia and is represented by William Holman Gallery, from Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The opening reception is Tuesday, July 8, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM and is open to the public. The exhibition will be on through November 7 and can be seen Monday – Friday, 9–5. Judd’s work, a combination of collage, painting and drawing, juxtaposes bold patterns with subtle tonalities and unexpected cropping. He mines art history, skillfully choosing and combining images and ideas to generate works that lead to new questions and understandings of the ideas they reference.
