Contributed by Saul Ostrow / “A Decade: 2012–22” is the first show of Cora Cohen’s work since her death in 2023. It includes a broad range of her late paintings and drawings, which reflect what might perhaps be called her “formalism” – a term that when applied to Cohen, resists any terminal definition, promise of unity, or set of rules. Her 50-year career frustrates linear narration, but what remained consistent across her varied approaches to painting was an unwavering commitment to abstract painting as a process-driven pursuit.
