Paintings Which Speak to Me... Grandpa Murray and His Amazing ‘Fire Engine Red’ Super Pumper
511 West 25th Street, New York City
April 2 through May 30, 2020
In his exhibition, Kolker uses painting over prints of photographs of Grandpa Murray and FDNY’s 1965 Super Pumper. Sandwiched to the figural paintings are multiple layers of colorful, gestural and abstract dot decalcomania paintings which abstractify the figural image as holiday lights tend to do; cheering-up the spectator’s affect.
Abstract Decalcomania – An Experiment In Perception
Ongoing
This ongoing satellite exhibition of select works from Abstract Decalcomania – An Experiment In Perception can be viewed at 600 Third Avenue in New York City. Kolker, as both artist and curator, is known to create and exhibit his art as an experiment in perception, testing our experience. Because technology has changed the ways we see, understand and communicate by using devices with flat screens, display grids and colored dots of light, the dot remains Kolker’s focus; but in this expansive exhibition, there is a new twist.
