Clare Grill: What You’re Told 


Wednesdays-Saturdays. Continues through Feb. 27 2010
212-219-0166

We can’t really figure out why, probably something to do with her unusual perspectives and the occasional surreal still life, but we don’t see anything even remotely conservative in the nostalgic, neo-figurative drawings and paintings of Queens-based artist Clare Gill. Drawn from a mix of family history, anecdotal experiences and pure fiction, Gill depicts her subjects in a washed-out, drained palette of light and soft hues that suggest a fog of memory and times past hanging over every image. Her brushstrokes echo that sense of vague uncertainty, layering paints in broad, gestural swaths rather than precise daubs.
