Isaac Abrams "Recent Paintings" at MICROCOSM GALLERY

James Kalm slips in for a tour of the recent paintings of Isaac Abrams. Reluctantly Kalm admits to being involved with the psychedelic, hippy scene in the late 60's. It was surprising though to see the paintings of Isaac Abrams at the "Summer of Love" exhibition at the Whitney Museum. This show presents Abrams' latest efforts and bares testament to his continued practice and mastery in the pursuit of his unique visionary abstraction. A brief sneak peek of Alex Grey's Chapel of Sacred Mirrors is thrown in for good measure.

Isaac Abrams is one of my biggest influences on my art. He's seriously amazing.

Very enjoyable, James, I also appreciated the Mati Klarwein and Pavel Ptletchnikew (sp?) references. I never quite got how anyone could paint at all on mescaline or LSD, I tried it in the seventies and the colors kept floating off the canvas. Like wow man...
