Ned Evans Featured as "Pick of the Week" by Artillery

Ned Evans’ recent survey exhibition entitled Slight Return; A Selection of paintings 1985 – 2015 at Craig Krull comprises a long-standing commitment to abstraction with the oft visual nod to great abstractionists like Helen Frankenthaler and Mark Rothko. As a whole, these paintings create visual conversations between one another wherein a deepening flow of red paint counterweights the starkness of an oddly familiar painterly object à la Robert Rauschenberg, yet more weightless. Evans’ masterful handling of materials allows for myriad shifts and changes within a relatively simple formal visual system, yet each work breathes a nearly ostensible inner life.
