McDermott & McGough at Cheim & Read Gallery

Artistic collaborators McDermott & McGough isolate a moment of dawning terror on the face of Anne Francis in the Twilight Zone, then make it more jolting by painting it on the face of nine, one-foot square blocks.  This marriage of Minimalism and Pop amuses (by resembling a giant Rubik’s cube) while its fractured state unsettles. (At Cheim & Read through Feb 23rd.)  

McDermott & McGough, Just a Memory, 1967, 9 wooden cubes, 2012.
