Contributed by Leslie Roberts / During a recent tour of downtown galleries, I saw several consecutive shows presenting tightly programmed bodies of work. In exhibit after exhibit, the pieces were uniform in size, homogeneous in strategy, and made of standardized, highly finished components. Even some strong exhibits felt overly glossy, suffused with a commodified quality. Molly Rose Lieberman’s “The Candles Are on the Table,” at Theta Gallery, was a welcome relief. Each painting and sculpture has a particular format and resolution that the artist appears to have arrived at in the making.
