Making and unmaking of art
Henry Lehmann
More "wet" - and smacking of emotion - are some works
by Mark Mullin nd Alexandre David in Room 418. For those artists, idea
is largely a pretext to lay on paint. Mullin's Particle Wave #2 is a
grid of pale dots, or particles, marinating on the sea of thin blue pigment.
This painting, a non-compositional arrangement, has a post modern look,
but is nevertheless based on the pleasure principle.
