If You Tilt Your Head Like This. . .

Sandra Lerner says her latest paintings
draw upon her long exploration of the similarities between Eastern philosophy and the latesttest theories in physics and cosmology. “I try to incorporate calligraphy's expressive force to conjure up references to nature as well the multiple universes that exist.”
Above, Wave, 2010. I actually think this is kind of nice, but I just never see the things people try to put in abstract paintings, and I am am utterly bored by speculations about similarities between quantum mechanics and eastern philosophy. I have been complaining about this particular vacuity since I was a sophomore in college, to no effect whatsoever, so I will say no more.
