Also, Matt pointed me toward (and maybe he’s already pointed you there, too) an interview with Sangram Majumdar at neotericart.com: “What I seek in the work is a sense of time and the range of human awareness and interest, from the sustained to the superficial. We never care or see something twice the same way. So, each time I look at my surface I try to take into account these tendencies. I don’t do studies anymore, partly because I don’t want to split up the ‘thinking’ and the ‘making.'”

Claire Sherman is showing new work at Kavi Gupta
We’ve posted on Ms Sherman before, but I think her work merits a second look, at the very least.

Michelle Oosterbaan’s densely detailed drawings are maybe not ideally suited for viewing as a jpeg. Her work is a part of the Great Rivers Biennial at the Museum of Contemporary Art in St. Louis until April 20th. Here are a couple of other links, with some details and installation shots: To Roberta Fallon’s flickr photos. And to a video made by the Contemporary.

Matthias Weischer paintings in Life After Death: New Leipzig Painting from the Rubell Family Collection at DePauw University’s Peeler Art Center through May 18, 2008. (Don’t tell anybody: I took this photo on the sly when the show was at the Kemper. I pretended to be bending down to check on Til and really quick pointed the camera and shot.)

Also, while I’m thinking about the Pulitzer: last month they put up some great photos on their blog of Richard Serra’s Joe covered in snow. (I know we’re all ready to be done with the snow for a while, but, really, it’s worth a look.)
