Andy Woll is an expressive painter whose work oscillates between abstraction and representation. The subject of many of his paintings over the past few years has been Mount Wilson in Los Angeles, horses in full profile, and Diego Velázquez’s paintings of Infanta Margaret Theresa from the 17th century. He has compulsively painted these subjects in recent years, taking inspiration from artists who returned to similar subject matter throughout their careers such as Paul Cézanne with Mont Sainte-Victoire and 18th century painter George Stubbs famed for his horse portraiture. By fixing the subject matter Woll experiences the freedom to explore other aspects of painting including color, mark-making, and differing levels of abstraction.
Andy Woll received his BFA from the Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles. Recent solo exhibitions include A Green Horse at Denny Gallery (Hong Kong), Green Earth at Night Gallery (Los Angeles, CA), Horses? at Chart Gallery (New York, NY), The First Turn of the Screw at Night Gallery (Los Angeles, CA), and Strange Animal at Denny Gallery (New York, NY). Notable group exhibitions include Pipe Dream at Rachel Uffner (New York, NY), and Pairs at Monte Vista Projects (Los Angeles, CA). In 2007 Woll was awarded the Saul and Sally Fifer Bernstein/Friends of Joe Mugnaini Award for works on paper. He has been reviewed and featured in publications including Cultured Magazine, Artnet News, Two Coats of Paint, and dayoutlast. Andy Woll is represented by Denny Gallery (New York) and Night Gallery (Los Angeles).

Taylor Anton White and Andy Woll’s solo exhibitions opened at two galleries next door to each other in Tribeca, White’s at Monica King Contemporary and Woll’s at Denny Dimin Gallery. Their bodies of work are outwardly different, but they are both visually as well as substantively compelling and have enough common ground to merit a comparative look.
