"I think of my paintings as, like, fancy paintings for connoisseurs," Alex Katz told @voguemagazine last April. "But the subject matter is for everybody," he says, "when you take the painting out of it, and just have the subject matter, they relate to people." See some of the artist's early works at @timothytaylorgallery for one more week: "Alex Katz: Subway Drawings," which features an array of intimate portraits sketched by Katz as he rode the subway to and from @thecooperunion in the 1940s, is up for one more week, until June 30th.
