Pam Glick @ Stephen Friedman Gallery

The paintings in Pam Glick’s focus exhibition are notable for their rhythmic formal play, whereby grid-like patterns are juxtaposed with looping gestural swirls.   Reinforcing the rectilinear shape of the canvas, the artist creates an architecture of interconnected vertical and horizontal segments, which she punctuates with arcs, zigs, zips and diagonals. Like the rhythm section in music, Glick establishes an underlying structure to guide her compositions
