I’m eager to learn more about the work of New York-based artist Paul Pagk.
“Pagk’s works look Minimalist, but they are not. Where Minimalism worked with intelligible gestalts, Pagk’s geometry is irreparably unintelligible. His geometrical pieces are the ruins of a gestalt that, like Humpty Dumpty, cannot be put back together again. The lack of connection between them makes for a peculiar esthetic disorientation, but then again his disconnectedness lurches to the autistic side of autistic-contiguous experience, renewing it through the backdoor.” – Donald Kuspit
