U + ME Exhibition Catalogue

This catalogue is published on the occasion of the exhibition:

U + ME: Milton Resnick and Matthew Wong
Curated by Alex Paul Chapin

Presented in association with Matthew Wong Foundation
September 8, 2023 - February 10, 2024

U + ME: Milton Resnick and Matthew Wong explores an unfounded relationship between two artist’s poetry and figurative paintings. Mostly comprised of works on paper spanning the last decade of each artists respective lives, also included in the exhibition are oil paintings, from both Resnick and Wong as well as poetry excerpts from the same period in which the works were completed.

Working directly with source material from the Resnick Passlof Foundation and additional support from both Matthew Wong Foundation and Cheim & Read, Alex Paul Chapin, curator and Foundation Manager, spent the last 16 months piecing together a visual narrative of coincidence and an uncanny similitude of expression and discipline in regard to painting and poetry between these two artists.

Please note: the exhibition catalogue features additional artwork and poetry that is not on display during the exhibition.

92 pages, 46 color plates, 14 poems, 2 b/w portraits, and 2 essays
