Christopher Joy and Zachary Keeting interview painter Enrico Riley on the occasion of the exhibition Enrico Riley: The Open Window at Giampietro Gallery, New Haven, CT, on view through May 25, 2012.

Riley discusses his work and process noting: "I really strive to not have the paintings feel like just compositional games… and maybe in that sense they're talking a little bit more about the life around the artist and the life that we're living right now – present tense – and the art being a by-product of that and not so much the art being made in this cloistered place away from life but in with life."
