I’m almost about to say “still an excellent exhibition at Sonce Allexander gallery”! Her palette of possibilities of show and it is endless. Each exhibition demonstrates one after the other the curatorial intentions of this young gallery: through smart choices of high-flying curators, showing real commitments and with the selection of strong art works.

In current exhibition each painting shows an intentional gesture, accurate but free. If the intention was to demonstrate that we do have great Californian painters to create our own Salon des Réalités Nouvelles, yes and they were outstanding. We can’t wait to see the next series. BCh
