On Kawara at Zwirner



I had a professor at grad school kind of a hotshot curator talk to me in a studio visit about experiencing On Kawara’s paintings. The gist of what she was telling me was to learn from the process and sincere dedication to a project.   When I entered David Zwirner I finally understood what she was talking about, as the rooms of dates painted represent a very long career as a working artist.  Granted there is a bit of OCD present in the process but there is something overwhelming and poetic of recording ones own life and life’s work in this way.
