Luhring Augustine is pleased to present a one-person exhibition by the American painter Philip Taaffe at the 2014 ADAA The Art Show.  In this body of new work, Taaffe extends many of the themes and subjects explored by the artist in recent years, such as the combination of lyrical abstraction with formal structure, and the delicate counterbalance between internal and external forces.  Generative forms inspired by botany, biology, and geological strata evidencing accretion and accumulation are starting points for Taaffe’s inimitable choreography of painterly processes and innovation.
