Chris Walsh’s paintings explore the unique combination of painterliness and the structure of the grid. Referencing urban landscape, Walsh makes slow paintings that bounce back and forth between what we see on a daily basis in a city space and what an artist feels through his chosen medium.

The curator Jim Osman is a favorite artist of mine and shows his work with Lesley Heller Gallery.
