“Call and Response,” an enormous group show hung salon-style in the back gallery at Gavin Brown, includes many of the artists whose work comprises “The Forever Now,” but the work selected by Gavin Brown, in a context both more cogent and more expansive, seems genuinely of the moment. Some abstract paintings are included, but, for the most part, a loose form of representation rules. The show is notable not only for whose work is included, but for the artists whose work is not. Another reminder that the art world can be like the stock market: one day you’re up, the next day you’re down. Here are some shots of the installation. Click images to enlarge.
