MINUS SPACE presents an exhibition of new work by New York artist Linda Francis. Francis will show a single painting conceived in three parts for the project space.

In a text accompanying the exhibition, artist and writer Michael Zahn remarks about her work, “…Although they are compassionate, they offer no solace. They are wise, but provide no instruction. They are radiant, and pass before us like the days. If I’m able to decipher the depth of their intention, then what they explicate in allographic form is perception of the numinous enfolded Other, the mysterium tremendum et fascinans of Infinity, the immense plenum beyond our threshold where information is stored as a dynamic force, and from which collective experience of the world is ceaselessly drawn…”

Linda Francis has exhibited her work nationally and internationally. She has mounted solo exhibitions at Nicholas Davies Gallery, Condeso Lawler Gallery, Damon Brandt Gallery, P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, Hal Bromm Gallery (all NYC), Ben Shahn Gallery / William Paterson University (NJ), Galerie Ghislain Mollet-Vieville et J.P. Najar (Paris), Gallery Per Sten (Copenhagen), New Arts Program (PA), and The Sarah Moody Gallery of Art / University of Alabama. Recent group exhibitions include the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Leubsdorf Art Gallery / Hunter College, Gallery Janet Kournatowski (all NYC), Sydney Non Objective (Australia), and Rogaland Kunstmuseum (Norway).

Linda Francis is the recipient of awards from the Terra Foundation, American Academy of Arts and Letters, John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, and the New York State Council on the Arts (CAPS Grant). Her paintings and drawings are included in the collections of the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Nordjyullands Kunstmuseum, MIT List Visual Arts Center, Rogalund Kunstmuseum, Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, Sarah Moody Gallery of Art / University of Alabama, Schlumberger Collection, Equitable Collection, and Philip Morris Collection.
