Bridget Riley is one of my favorite painters. I am in love with her awesome color and all over patterns. Riley was the first painter I ever related to in style and method. Riley is cmeticulous about her designs mapping out each piece in very systematic way. In the 1960′s she received a good bit of press and recognition for her series of black and white op art paintings. For me I have always enjoyed her later work as she moves away from op art and toward a more colorful patterning.

Check out Riley’s newest show at Pace Wilderstein, Recent Paintings and Gouaches, on display till January 5, 2008 at Wilderstein’s 57th Street and Chelsea galleries. The galleries will showcase 12 oil on linen paintings, Riley’s largest works to date, and 8 gouaches from 2004-2007 as well as Wall Painting 1 (2007), a graphite and acrylic work that measures approximately 8 x 16 feet.
