Working in series that evolved slowly over decades, British-born,
New York-based painter Alan Uglow (1941-2011) always remained
faithful to his central vision; his practice was unaffected by the
increasingly commercial demands of the art scene in the 1980s and
1990s, earning him the "artist's artist" tag. His paintings revolve
around a subtle dialogue between notions of center and edge, and
are executed gradually, with several layers of paint. They appear
at once calm and dynamic, and simultaneously suggest emptiness and
ground. Published to coincide with a 2013 exhibition organized by
Bob Nickas at David Zwirner, New York, this indispensable catalogue
includes all-new photography of paintings created from the early
1990s through 2011, archival interviews and images, and an
exhibition chronology illustrated with images of museum and gallery
invitation cards.
