Mindy Solomon Gallery is pleased to present Splintered, a two-person exhibition focused on the dynamic, colorful, space shattering works of Ali Smith and Virginia Leonard; envelope pushing artists with a penchant for explosive use of bright pigment. Ali Smith has long been a proponent of neon. For her current exhibition she appears to embrace it in many of her works. In her artist statement she discusses her journey with painting: "In developing my own personal language of abstraction for the past 20 years, I continue to seek ways to Find invention and liberation in painting. I make large scale, colorful, multi- layered canvases that lure the viewer into a world of complexity and chaos. I make paintings that I hope challenge and engage the viewer directly, as an overall complex viewing experience."

Mindy Solomon is also pleased to present a trio of gallery artists working primarily in the medium of clay. Pushing the boundaries of abstract expressionism through surface and form, each artist brings a unique perspective to the reasons behind their work and the resulting objects. Francie Bishop Good discusses her journey to this current exhibition: "Working in clay has opened doors to a magical and quirky world. What seemingly started as a therapy to the tumultuous times, evolved into unconventional sculptures that act as both optimistic and protective forms."
