Eric Holzman, 2012, oil on canvas, about 50 x 36 inches
It was a privilege and a treat to spend some time with Eric Holzman in his Soho studio last week -- looking at a group of new paintings, some works in progress, and some older paintings being reworked. In fact Eric often works for years on a painting, constantly shifting shapes and adjusting color -- leaving it, coming back months later and opening it up again. Recently he has been attempting to shorten that process a bit with a series of paintings that utilize and explore the kind of abbreviation he achieves in his drawings.
