""Bortolami is presenting the second solo exhibition by Deborah Remington (b. 1930, d. 2010) at the gallery. Mirrors features works from three distinct junctures in Remington’s career, from some of the artist’s most iconic compositions to rare and never before exhibited paintings. The exhibition coincides with the release of the artist’s first monograph, published by Rizzoli Electa. Remington achieved notoriety in the early 1960s for an inscrutable approach to hard edge abstraction, painting an iconography of irregular, organic shapes rendered with startling precision. Her heraldic imagery, both biomorphic and mechanistic at once, encircled luminous, mirror-like surfaces painted with gradients of black, white and gray. She painted the irregular perimeter of each shape with brilliant bands of orange, blue or green, as if the metallic surfaces within were a conduit for the bold, electric lines which surrounded them. ~ARTDAILY.COM
