an oil pastel medium on a black canson paper depicting jimmy Hendrix in a warm psychedelic color scheme on the highlight and exposed black negative space on the shadows. It is a charming, almost funny, little collage of collage and collage, but one that is not so much about collage as it is about collage itself. Hendrix is a collage master, and this show marked his first solo exhibition in New York.Hendrix, who died in 1993 at age fifty-three, was an odd choice for a major retrospective. While the work of many younger artists is so frequently considered as exemplary of the post-Minimalist turn in American art, Hendrix was something of a latecomer. He had been part of the influential Circle of Fifteen, an offshoot of the New York avant-garde group Agitprop and the Material Remnants of American Art, formed in 1966 by artists including Richard Serra, Robert Ryman, and Richard Tuttle. Hendrix was a member of that group from the late 1960s to the late 80s, and his work is informed by his experiences in the circles of Robert Smithson, John Cage, and others. He has often been compared to those figures, and his art is, in fact, predicated on the critique of the monochrome as an arbitrary and ultimately reductive mode of representation. This is particularly evident in his works on paper, which are often associated with his early-70s compositions of collage. But his work is also informed by the critical engagements with memory, the permanence of images, and the possibility of abstraction, and by a concern for form. The artist had a penchant for arranging objects in grids, and the grids of his collages are not only for the sake of decoration but also as a means of holding the viewer in suspension. The grid is an idealized, abstract space in which the artist can create a spatial tension with the objects he or she is manipulating, and Hendrix used the grid in the same way that he used the grid in the collage pieces.

As a result, the images appear as hypnotic, mind-bending patterns, as if Hendrix had been suspended in midair in a bubble of color, but then pulled down to earth and up to the ceiling by a rope, and then pulled down again. In this sense, the viewer is reminded of the artists famous title from his 1972 performance The New Jim Crow: It Is What It Is.Hendricks recent paintings are the result of a period of intense self-reflection, which began with the creation of his first New York solo exhibition in 1968. This exhibition featured his paintings from the 1970s, including the series The New Jim Crow, 1973–75, which featured Hendrix as a series of paintings, in which the artists name is a reference to the title of the first Jim Crow, a song by the Black Panthers. In addition, Hendrix included a selection of paintings made from a series of letters he wrote to himself in which he questioned the authenticity of the images he paints. In the end, these paintings proved to be more successful than the earlier works. Hendrix has always worked with ambiguity, and the ambiguity of his own work is one of the primary points of reference. In the context of the present moment, this ambiguity serves as a reminder that painting is a process of reflection, and that reflection is often more revealing than the original.

The work is an elegant, rhapsodic homage to Hendrix, whose musical accomplishments were of a piece with his commercial work. In this case, Hendrix was a late, high-profile addition to the show, and the artworks on display are often of the same ilk as Hendrixs music, a fact which only serves to heighten the irony.At this point, Hendrixs public persona has been supplanted by his artistic persona. He has been transformed into a figure, but not a hero, and his position in the world is to remain uncertain. He remains a minor figure, an obscure figure with a vague, almost impenetrable history. A memorial exhibition is overdue. Its time Hendrix, in his natural habitat, was given a proper place in the art world, and in the art world he is in the enviable position of having been included in the first wave of modernist artists to be recognized as such.John Yau is a frequent contributor to Artforum.

The painting is a series of two-by-two-foot blocks of pink and blue with some white left over. The blocks of pink and blue, however, are stretched out, as if in a fashion, and the white surrounding the pink and blue is less prominent. The paint is applied in a flat, single stroke that does not overdo the effect of the pink and blue. The painting is very reminiscent of the work of Edward Hopper. Hendrix is a relatively late addition to Hendrix, and I found it difficult to believe that this was Hendrix. Hendrix has been a presence in New York for a number of years and was one of the few artists I could talk to about the city and the work of this young artist. He is a young artist with a lot to learn and a lot to do. He needs a little more time to develop and to work out the kinks of his vision.The exhibition included several paintings from Hendrixs ongoing series of paintings, which was completed last year. The series, done in oil and charcoal on paper, are a continuation of his work in this medium. Hendrixs painting is all brushstrokes, all paint, and a lot of the work is just a lot of paint on a lot of paint. Hendrix is a talented but inexperienced artist and I hope he continues to improve.

an oil pastel medium on a black canson paper depicting jimmy Hendrix in a warm psychedelic color scheme on the highlight and exposed black negative space on the shadows. The work was a kind of visual summary of Hendrixs work in the past, as well as a return to the kind of physicality Hendrix employed in the past. The canson paper was cut, folded, and strewn with paper. The folded paper was stretched over a double-edged rectangle of black canvas and a black box of black canvas. The canvas was a twisted, overlapping, and folded-over form, the black canvas a double-curved, folded-over, and folded-over form. The black canvas was painted a bright color, and the black box a bright color. The canvas was a wavy, folded-over form, and the black canvas was a wavy, folded-over form. Hendrixs drawings and paintings are filled with a sense of play and of playfulness, as well as with a sense of playfulness and playfulness at the same time. Hendrix has said, I want to show that a drawing can be a painting, a painting can be a drawing, or vice versa. Hendrixs drawings are both drawings and paintings. He has said that they are both drawings and paintings. But he has also said that they are both drawings and paintings. I find it difficult to say whether Hendrix is saying that they are both drawings and paintings or both. And if Hendrix is saying that they are both drawings and paintings, and that they are both drawings and paintings, then I think I understand his statement. It seems that Hendrix is saying that the two-dimensional form of the drawing is more significant than the three-dimensional form of the painting. But isnt this also saying that the two-dimensional form is more significant than the three-dimensional form? I dont think so. Hendrix is suggesting that we consider the drawing as an object, rather than as a form. He is suggesting that we consider the drawing as a figure in space, rather than as a figure in a field.
