Painting à la Mode by Jerry Saltz
"Painting as Paradox," Nov. 7-Dec. 21, 2002, at Artists Space, 38 Greene Street, New York, N.Y. 10013
An appeal to painters before we look at "Painting as Paradox," the big, uneven group show at Artists Space. I love painting; so do you. But hear this: Notwithstanding its near death experience (what one critic called its "passage through the eye of the Minimal-Conceptual needle in the late 1960s and early 1970s"), except for a few curmudgeons, the pleasure police at October, some pedantic curators and maybe Arthur Danto, no one thinks painting is dead. More importantly, no one has actually thought this since the Nixon administration.
