Kevin Umana in ‘The Usual Suspects: A View of Abstraction’ at DC Moore Gallery

Music, 20th century design and the dingy tiles of New York’s Holland Tunnel have inspired New York-based painter Kevin Umana’s abstract canvases.  Here, the artist nods to the award-winning film ‘If Beale Street Could Talk’ in the color scheme of this small, energetic, and fractured painting.  (On view in Chelsea at DC Moore Gallery through August 8th).
