Drawing on States of Mind and Being
By Peggy Roalf

"From the Marble Hall, a charcoal drawing by Susan Rothenberg, the largest in the show, can be seen in its entirety. Up close, it is an explosion of bold marks; only when stepping back can a viewer assemble the image of a bicycle rider bearing down on the paper’s edges. Here the show begins, with selections from acquisitions of modern and contemporary drawings made over the last ten years."

"Neil Gall is possibly best known for his kinky sounding ‘S&M sculpture paintings’ which echo the disquiet of German artist Hans Belmer’s life-size pre-pubescent dolls which conjure the debris of everyday life into stunted, contorted & amputated characters. Gall’s works are themselves tortured pictures of a tortuous process - fetish-objects in the cult of the artist’s own practice. "

"Sculptural agglomerations of everyday objects—Ping-Pong balls taped together, wires twisted into various shapes—serves as the models for Gall's otherwise realistic paintings and drawings."
