DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Robert Kushner: Portraits & Perennials. In this exhibition of new paintings and works on paper, Kushner extends the boundaries of his compositions, infusing his iconic, organic imagery with vibrant color and increased geometric precision in a lyrical synthesis of styles and techniques.
Underscoring the evocative title of the catalogue’s essay, “Do REAL Men Paint Flowers?,” the exhibition seeks to disrupt the narrative surrounding the decorative while exploring the importance of beauty in contemporary art. In paintings such as Bossa Nova (2015), Ahavah (2016), and Nasturtiums-Hot Season (2016), Kushner’s defining grid-like backgrounds have grown increasingly pronounced, as he employs a bold, energized palette of brilliant pinks, purples, and yellows that imbue this body of work with new vigor. “…I began to consider how I could introduce a more raucous color sense, and increase of scale of the individual floral and foliate elements so that they might go spilling off the confines of the canvas,” the artist explains.

Thank you for the show, especially the close-up macro views.
I remember his talk for Jerald Melberg Gallery in Charlotte NC when he addressed the cultural differences of art scholarly discussion on how "decorative" art is viewed. Very interesting points made.
Nice video in terms of speed, rhythm. Also appreciate macro micro close up views. I liked the graphisme and color composition of the work. Maybe nothing new but very pleasing. A duo of structured background and spontaneous flowers on top ( I assume this order of painting ) thank you. Maybe some gentle music instead of real sounds….😉
A subject close to my heart is flowers and trying to find a fresh approach into the subject. It seems a little too safe, but I do appreciate the challenge of using perfect 72 by 72 inch paintings. Thanks chris
Boring...no energy. This stuff is nothing more then wall paper.
