The Current

O’Neil Scott finds his voice. What does the real deal look like in contemporary visual art? To me, there are handful of true visual artists that execute with extraordinary levels of craft, bring our culture forward in a meaningful way, and embody that often missing, but all important quality, authenticity. There are the big names like Salle, Kiefer, the latter work of Guston. If you want to see art at that level here in Philadelphia, spend some time on the first floor of Corridor looking at O’Neil Scott. This artists has found his language and he is now speaking to us with something extraordinary. Below you will find hopes and dreams, confidence and intimacy, grounded reality and the deepest reaches of imagination. I’m avoiding individual commentary…each work deserves to tell its own story.
