Josh Smith: ‘Sculpture’

The New York Times, review by Roberta Smith

2015

This artist is devoted to unpredictability and a seeming nonchalance that usually pay off, or at least stir curiosity about his next move. His new “sculptures” – no exception – feature loose, spare marks on panels painted white that were made a few years ago and left outside. The results suggest works abandoned by Cy Twombly. Once more Mr. Smith’s version of bone elegance, robust touch and assured composition convince.
