Review:

Whoever hangs the shows here has the eye. There is a little Malevich beautifully hung high under the 
arch like an altar piece. Not the fabulous abstract painting show one was hoping for. Too many 
mitteleuropean painters of no great brilliance and not enough big americans showing their big 
paintings which absorb you into their universe of swirl. Richters ugly abstract painting squeegee 
peeezy  is so revolting as to turn the corner and reach beauty again. There are many works where you 
think, oh who's that is it pollock or kline or rothko and then find out is someone you dont know the 
name of. Insular angloism I suspect, out there there are many fair abstacters. Leaves one basically 
unmoved though.
