WILLIAM CORWIN reviews “Ida Kohlmeyer: Cloistered” in the BROOKLYN RAIL. “In Kohlmeyer’s paintings, there is a protected conceptual space lying just below the surface of the canvas, under a layer of sparingly applied oil paint and graphite. This is the imaginary volumetric structure for most of Kohlmeyer’s imagery in this series: a somber interior zone peeks out through a central oculus, or blossoms in an undulating vegetal sprout. The relationship of painting to the viewer is reversed as the spectator is surveilled by an alien eye. Kohlmeyer paints this cloistered presence into her works with varying degrees of directness. Black Insert” (1968) simply presents a black diamond with a lightly incised rectilinear form floating, shadowy, within it.” #willcorwin #brooklynrail #artreview #virtualview #idakohlmeyer #kohlmeyer #blackinsert #mixedmedia #installationart #cloistered #geometricabstraction #organicabstraction #1960s #abstraction #nolaartist #womenartists #womenartdealers #artgallerynyc #chelseagalleries #nycart #berrycampbell (at Berry Campbell) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAZQrq8l4mK/?igshid=5f5ocegf7hji

EXHIBITION NEWS. “Postwar Women” is The Art Students League’s first exhibition to explore the vital contributions of these alumnae on the international stage. On view at The Phyllis Harriman Mason Gallery from November 2 to December 1, 2019, “Postwar Women” challenges the misperception that great art produced by women artists is somehow an exception rather than the rule. Curator Will Corwin investigates the history of innovative art academies like The League that promoted democratic ideologies, which in turn created artistic opportunities for women of all social classes. This ground-breaking exhibition features over forty artists active between 1945-65, tracing the complex networks these professional women formed to support one another and their newfound access to art education.
