“Color is Knowledge” – Donald Judd  

FiveMyles is pleased to announce Color Formed, an exhibition of sculpture. These six sculptors utilize color to express form in distinct and personal ways, drawing on a range of sources from tools to landscape and architecture. The work, which spans five decades, uses abstract/metaphorical forms to explore color in multiple approaches.  

Monti and Porcaro add color to their casting materials. Beach and Doyle apply paint to built forms. Salmanson and Urkowitz turn to materials that have inherent color. Through casting, painting and found color, the artists find ways to leverage hue and form into unified works of art. 

This exhibition is made possible with support from New York State Council for the Arts, Public Funds from the New York City Dept. of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, the Foundation for Contemporary Art and The Greenwich Collection.
