Thornton Willis at DAVID RICHARD Markus Lüpertz at MICHAEL WERNER

James Kalm is an unabashed contemporary art history geek. When, in the course of his tooling around New York recording views of exhibitions, he notes interesting parallels in what’s being presented, he tries to bring these elements to the viewer’s attention. Both “Thornton Willis A Painting Survey Six Decades: Works from 1967-2017” at David Richard Gallery, and “Marcus Lüpertz The Grace of the Twentieth Century is Rendered Visible by the Dithyramb I Have Invented: Paintings from 1963-1976” at Michael Werner are mini-retrospectives of master painters. Thornton Willis has been a presence on the New York scene since the late 1960s. He’s maintained his independence and unique vision of abstraction while extending the legacy of the New York School. Having begun his practice during a period when minimalism and conceptualism reigned and painting was shunned, this display chronicles his diverse approaches to color and composition. Marcus Lüpertz came of age in a Berlin still reconstructing itself after WWII. Within this turbulent environ, the creative social forces encouraged experimentation and innovation. Lüpertz was, and still is, at the forefront of the movements “De Nieuwe Wilden” (New Wild Beasts) and the European Trans Avant-Garde. A musical introduction is provided by West Fourth Trio. This program was recorded April 21 and 22, 2022. #jameskalmreport #jameskalmroughcut #lorenmunk
