Judith Seligson

Judith Seligson is a painter and writer interested in the space between things.

Judith Seligson’s solo New York City exhibition at Galérie Mourlot in New York City runs from May 4 through June 26, 2022. Titled The More You Look, The More You See, the show will feature new pigment prints, collages, and oil on panel paintings from the last three years. Ms. Seligson calls her core body of work intimate geometry. Her method is contrapuntal in that each shape is both a positive shape/melody in itself as well as the harmony to the adjacent shapes. She searches for the exact location of the infinitesimal line that frees each shape from the other.

Ms. Seligson studied with Flora Natapoff at H/R (1973); audited Philip Guston’s graduate seminar in painting at Boston College (1973); attended the Provincetown Workshop taught by Leo Manso and Victor Kandell (1975). She admires particularly, Mondrian, de Kooning, Rembrandt, and Guston — painters of light.
