Max Gimblett Workspace

the long version

"For the last thirty-six years, the New Zealand-born artist Max Gimblett has worked out of the same painting studio in New York's Lower East Side. Gimblett is known for his dedicated investigation into the purity of material and form, a journey that is profoundly marked by Buddhism, Jungian studies and Zen ink painting. In 2009, renowned photographer John Savage recorded his own encounter with the studio space, tracing the arcs of journeys both physical and interior. This work gives us a completely unique way to situate Gimblett's utterance as an artist, to view his art as a physical practice and as a way of living."--Publisher's description.
