Paul Mogensen (b. 1941, Los Angeles, California) is a New York-based painter who has often been associated with Minimalism, although his mathematical, progressional work resists categorization. Rather than reproducing the reductive geometric abstractions of his Minimalist contemporaries, Mogensen uses an iterative format to activate the picture plane. His paintings are meant to be deciphered rather than easily comprehended: often full of movement, they actively draw the eye across the canvas. Each painting is calibrated according to the rules of elemental mathematics, particularly those deriving from Renaissance and Ancient Egyptian theorems. Mogensen uses such arithmetic progressions to determine the sequence and size of each color form. The resultant morse-code-like arrays call to mind the universalist ideas of early 20th century Russian artists and poets admired by Mogensen, such as Mayakovsky, Rodchenko, and Tatlin.

Alvaro Barrington: Oh, Sandy? Sandy, Sandy at Karma New York:

Figuring it out is hard and I’m sorry

We have to be gentle with each other’s hearts

I Like America and America likes me

How dare you make this harder

Why cant you let me have this

You cant be this liberally idiotic like common sense has to come into play at some point

Russiagate

Show me the incentive and ill show you the outcome

Alternative currency schemes

They fell for the rhetoric they fell for the hype

Negros take abuse as a sign of love

The patina of the privilege class

The story is no longer the boss instead we sell narratives

I think most people just want to improve their condition and i dont think people are as tied up on the philosophy of the government as they are about improving their condition

The creation of the library across the united states was the greatest act of philanthropy

We must build before the backshots

Unholy alliance

Every debt is a social obligation

Play stupid games win stupid prizes

I think they just dont care about the sensitivities and not caring about the sensitivities when you’re talking about black people when your talking about black people not caring about them is the same as hating them

Pop culture is Art plus time

Alternative asset class

Experienced to be photographed

Rage against the dying of light

Chief everything officer

Professional buzz words

Peak entitled neoliberal feminist

Betta belly burst than good food waste

We have all become very adept at saying things that are technically true but lack context

People want any type of Fame even if its embarrassing

You know the family dynamics on repeat

You reading about you and you aint wrote

Middle class laziness and entitlement masquerading as social justice warriors

Id prefer clarity to agreement

The Math aint Mathing

You ever lived with somebody while they eating you starved

Asset Bubble

Of all the things i care about this is below my line

Educated by other people’s interest

Who is served by these stories

gallery visit: Tate Britain

artist evaluation: Alvaro Barrington

above photos- left via tate.org.uk , middle + right, my own

The main body of work I saw at the Tate was Alvaro Barrington's commission "Grace". As we entered the museum, we split into groups and were given the instruction to look at, react to and absorb the work without looking at the text panels, in order to form original opinions about the subject matter etc.

This process was very foreign to me as my main objective when visiting museums previously had been to take as many photos as I could of the artwork and text panels due to this making up a large part of my research marks in prior projects. Despite this, I much preferred this new way of viewing artwork as I found that I could retain a lot more information, as well as take time to actually think about and evaluate what I was seeing.

I really loved "Grace" as although I am not from the exact same culture as Barrington, I immediately recognised the inspiration taken from Carnival from my own childhood experiences. Additionally, the domestic installation piece with the plastic covered chairs and rain sound on the corrugated metal 'roof' also reminded me of another childhood memory; a month long holiday took to Ghana around 10 years ago to visit my dad's extended family, many of whom I had never met. The corrugated metal and colour of the wood deeply resonated with me as, I instantly connected the textures from the exhibit to my personal memories and experiences with them in the past.
