Barbara Stauffacher Solomon: Exits Exist
By Barbarita PolsterIn fusing architecture and typography through her signature supergraphics, Solomon incises the elegant 1902 Prairie-style mansion housing the Graham Foundation galleries with the sharp precision of Modernist graphic design and the stinging irreverence of a carefully crafted and dexterous wit.
Michael Madrigali: Big City Nights
By Barbarita PolsterThe human body only serves as a logical tool for measurement until it catches sight of itself. By toying with scale within his works, Michael Madrigali pokes holes in familiar strategies of measurement and organization, from the urban landscape to the personal archive, topiaries to semaphores, thus animating his paintings and sculptures with a peculiar self-awareness that never quite gives way to nihilism.
