| Talking About Abstract Painting |
Everyone loves this immensely talented and prolific Bushwick painter. And it seems everyone has their own Todd Bienvenu, their own dialogue with some facet of his work. His paintings are a fusion of New York School sophistication and American lowbrow. Double-barreled, withering, and frequently hilarious. There's a lot of range in Bienvenu's work, and many spooky pitstops.
