We received these images and text from Tom Gitterman about the exhibition More Avant-Garde which he presents in his gallery until November 2.
I am always looking for art that will contribute to my understanding, art that will broaden my perspective or make me feel a sense of connection. Most importantly, it must be distinctive enough that I want to experience it again.
The exhibition includes a selection of recent additions to the gallery’s inventory, mostly from my trip to Paris this summer. It’s a diverse group made from the 1920s to the 1960s, but all were created in an avant-garde style, ranging from modernism to surrealism to abstraction to conceptual portraiture. It’s fascinating to see how these works from bygone eras hold up and are held in a contemporary perspective. They were created by artists, some established, others lesser known, who were adding their own original expression to ideas that were still in progress.
