Works by Sally King Benedict and her father-in-law George Read will be on view in the next exhibition scheduled at the Quogue Gallery. Sally King Benedict is a contemporary artist living and working in Ketchum, Idaho. High praise from critics and collectors has led to her work being featured in major publications across the U.S., including Elle Decor, Architectural Digest, Domino, Garden & Gun, and Southern Living, among others. Her East End debut at the Quogue Gallery in 2017 was met with much acclaim and the gallery is honored to be showing her work once again. George Read has recently found his way back to the studio after a long and varied career in and around the artists, critics and collectors who populate the landscape of contemporary fine art. “Picasso and Miró were the first, master storytellers,” the artist says. “Rothko and Tápies created compelling images, and color field painters and others, like Diebenkorn, created complex visual experiences. I find myself pursuing something between the last two. I hope to create evocative images accompanied by experiences of color and form.”
The exhibition runs from August 18 to September 30, 2022
