Carmen Herrera
Blanco y Verde
1966
The New York Times Art & Design section strikes again. Check out this article on Carmen Herrera, the 94-year-old minimalist painter whose first piece sold just five years ago. To paraphrase the philosophy of my teacher and mentor, Ron Nagle, Herrera is finally getting Cheese Now. This story reinforces the idea that unwavering commitment and quality are worthwhile pursuits within the art world, whether or not the art world says so. Massive thanks to Tim S. for the heads-up!
