About the Item

Sigrid Sandström, Untitled, 2015, acrylic on polyester canvas, 39-1/2 x 35-1/2 inches The various marks that collide in Sigrid Sandström’s paintings don’t settle into perfect unity. They simmer, alternately complementing and obscuring their neighbors. Sandström interleaves hard-­edged opaque shapes with translucent washes, squeegeed smears and fast brushstrokes. She presses paint-­saturated, creased pieces of canvas onto her surfaces to produce variegated fields of color. Although the emphasis is squarely on assembly – the nuts and bolts of Sandström’s process are right there on the surface – the accumulated layers wedge an unlikely depth into her paintings. Illusionistic rumples surge forward only to be restrained by thin, tape-­like bands. A bright mist sits topmost in a composition while appearing to recede back into the canvas. The internal pressure – color over color, shape against shape – sustains a tentative, volatile space, and the paintings thrum with the experimental vitality of their making.

In the middle of the road
By Dana Frankfort
Located in Houston, TX
Dana Frankfort In the middle of the road, 2017 oil on canvas over panel 48 x 48 x 1.75 inches For over two decades, Dana Frankfort has explored the vexing periphery between language and sight by painting words. Rather than laying claim to the paintings, controlling their semiotic pulse, her words serve as the formal armature; they prop up, ventilate, and allow the many layers of paint to breathe. Imperatives, allusions, evocations—the words dissolve into a palimpsest of obscured serifs and stems, into color and form. The title of the work is a phrase from a poem by Carlos Drummond de Andrade’s “In the Middle of Road.” Here it is, translated from the Portuguese by Elizabeth Bishop...
