Colonel David Richardson’s Gunplay by Anthony Haden-Guest - New York
David Richardson has been equally motivated by war but very differently. A career officer in the Marine Corps, a colonel in Iraq, who has been until recently working for the administration on the oversight on weapons of mass destruction, Richardson has been a lifelong painter. His work in the show which opens on March 16th at the AMRM gallery on East 69th Street are abstractions, but his precisely considered use of such symbols as arrows, circles, Zeroes and Ones, loads them with meaning. But meaning just what?
AMRM artist Renelio Marin is featured in ARTnews,
“His arena included relationships with most of the major artists of the last century. He received personal works of art and portraits from many, including Miro, Raphael Soyer, Menashe Kadishman, Ron Agam, De Chirico, Chagall, Sonya Delanay, Larry Rivers, Renelio Marin, Christo and Jeanne-Claude.”
