As a body of work, the exhibition celebrates that long, enduring embrace, one captured in the classic beauty, stillness and grace of Elena’s constant presence, of those numinous relationships where line and form reify lives closely lived with tender regard.

John Walker at 499 Park Avenue Lobby Gallery Installation View
Walker – as we expect of a modernist painter – celebrates paint. His lush surfaces and generous gestures remind us of the artifice of painting and of the presence of his hand in constructing the image. Walker clearly loves paint and relishes the act of moving it across the canvas.
