Phillip King at Luhring Augustine Gallery

True to its name, British octogenarian Phillip King’s dynamic ‘Swirl’ suggests a sudden levitation of two perforated sheets of polyurethane foam from two anchoring black triangular shapes.  It’s vivid color that gives this lively new work its lift though, including the bold tones on Luhring Augustine’s gallery walls.  (On view in Chelsea through August 10th).
