A Trio of Reviews in The New Yorker, The New York Times and Two Coats of Paint

18 February, 2021

A review of Medrie’s ongoing solo show at Tibor de Nagy from the chief critic at the New York Times, Roberta Smith appeared in the February 17, 2021 issue. Click here to read her concise and insightful text.

Another mention of the Tibor de Nagy exhibition was made in The New Yorker, “Goings on About Town” section. Writer Joanna Fateman treats us to poetic descriptions of the works: “The big compositions’ irregular shapes are plotted out by the seams of deconstructed garments, like parcels of land on a map. In Take Me to the River, a commanding work in bright navy blue, an overlay of white lines suggests fragmented circuitry; Favela is a handsome crowd of mustard, crimson, burgundy, and blue trapezoids. ”

Jonathan Stevenson has penned a thoughtful consideration of the figurative/abstract quandary in relation to the art of Medrie and David Humphrey in their current duo exhibition of works on paper at the New York Studio School gallery. It appeared on February 14th in NYC blogzine, Two Coats of Paint. Check it out here.
