Barthelemy Toguo at Robert Miller

At the Robert Miller Gallery, the work of Barthelemy Toguo shows his multi-media proficiency. One of my favorites, "The philosopher" shows a common theme in his watercolors, a figure spewing forth material. One can read this as a purging and cleansing act or it could be assumed that this is the creative process brewing out of the artist's head. The technique of the watercolor and the wet onto wet painting process and skill is impressive.
