John Goodrich reviews Susan Jane Walp: Paintings on Paper at Tibor de Nagy, New York, on view through October 17, 2015.
Goodrich concludes that "the best paintings [in the exhibition] confirm what we may have already suspected of Walp’s work, which is that its power derives not from a strategy of centered, symmetric arrays but through something more intuitive: a comprehension of the rhythmic character of her subjects. This would be a painter’s truest kind of devotion, not one of merely assigning symbols of significance but of uncovering the momentousness of the purely visual."
