Gerassi

There is a curious Rip Van Winkle quality about this show. It comes not only from the fact that Gerassi has not shown for 20 years but from the freshness with which he attacks already explored areas of geometric abstraction. This is not to deny the rich attraction of many of the canvases, but to underline the sense of personal discovery which enlivens much of the work.

These are paintings done for the love of painting and though the dislocation of the war years has been costly, there are clear signs in this show of how far he can go now that he seems to have his grip on the brushes again.
