WILLIAM LAMSON -REVIEW IN ARTFORUM

WILLIAM LAMSON Automatic 2009
'Molino Drawing' video still shown

William Lamson's recent solo exhibition Automatic is reviewed in the latest issue of ARTFORUM -read the full article here & visit www.artforum.com for more information, art news, and to subscribe.

In his review, Michael Odom highlights the 'Sea Drawings' component of the exhibition:

"This construction -which also employs plastic bottle necks, a roughly assembled wooden box, and a crushed soft-drink can -looks improvised from trash any yet it is almost elegant"

WILLIAM LAMSON Automatic 2009

"The four sea drawings, with their tidal variations in line distribution and density, are guazy and atmospheric delights; regardless of the process, they succeed as drawings in themselves"

TED KINCAID + DALLAS ART FAIR

“Nothing looks more optimistic than Ted Kincaid’s new series of sky images at Marty Walker Gallery (through February 13; Walker is also one of 15 Texas dealers to participate in the Dallas Art Fair, so look for some Kincaids in her booth there, too). Kincaid’s a wizard in the photo-based field, deftly concocting images that hover between the real and the conjured. We still have memories of the flying saucer–like orbs he fashioned for a Neiman Marcus cover years ago.” -PAPER CITY

“This accomplished North Texas artist (Ted Kincaid) is on the verge of rising to recognition on a high national level. This inquisitive, technically advanced artist continues to explore in his photography-based art the difference or similarity between four of the primary artistic mediums – photography, printmaking, painting and sculpture and how he can manipulate or amalgamate them for his purposes. Thus, he creates a new format for purposely disturbing but stunning art by discovering complicated, relatively new art making processes.” -REGULARMAIN.COM

“Ted Kincaid is one of the most recognized and respected artists from North Texas.” -PEGASUS NEWS
