Lot Essay

“For nearly 20 years [Stingel] has made work that seduces the eye while also upending most notions of what, exactly, constitutes a painting, how it should be made and by whom…. He combines a love of painting with the postmodern suspicion of it, and often achieves a near-perfect balance between the visual and the conceptual.”
—(R. Smith, “DIY Art: Walk on It, Write on It, Stroke It,” The New York Times, 29 June 2007)
