Lot Essay

"Clark’s oval is an abstract eye or stand-in for a lens. It brings what it sees into a stronger focus. At the same time, the ridged surface imbues the painting with a structural physicality. The cluster of rows reminded me of musical scales" (J. Yau, “Recognizing Ed Clark’s Contribution to Abstraction”, Hyperallergic, 6 October 2018).
