Steven Alexander blogs about the recent exhibition John Grillo: Works from the 1940s, 50s and 60s at David Findlay Jr Gallery, New York.

Alexander writes: "Grillo's inventiveness is manifested in surprising poetic explorations that are freewheeling, fresh, and utterly without pretense. His paintings carve out and hold their own humble, playful, vital place in the rich history of postwar abstraction."
