Synopses & Reviews
Art. WORKING THE GRID by Robert G. Edelman surveys David Kapp's painting series from 1980-2000, entitled Painted Streets/Urban Grids. Kapp has been painting the urban landscape, in particular New York City, in all its relentless pace, irresistible dynamism and precarious balance of order and chaos, for some twenty years. This book brings into focus Kapp's remarkable balance of an ever changing vision of life in the city and an innate prowess with paint. Robert G. Edelman has written for Art in America, Artnet, ArtPress (Paris), The New York Art Examiner, and Artnews. He has lectured for the Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Modern Art and currently directs Anita Friedman Fine Arts in New York City.
