A polymath if there ever was one! ROSALYN DREXLER was a painter, a novelist, a playwright, a wrestler, a total iconoclast. This month she has a show at @garthgreenangallery, a romp of a novel reissued by @hagfishbooks, and a few other surprises, which you can read all about in Vogue’s September issue or at the link in bio. taken in New York City by @graceedquist

New in print, longer online! “Marcia Marcus: Strange and Clear” opens at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum tomorrow- and what a fitting setting for this wholly original artist, who captured the light and eccentricity of P-town even when she wasn’t there.

Helen Frankenthaler, XXL! Wrote about a new show at Gagosian that features 22 of Frankenthaler’s largest paintings, some of which have been seen by the public approximately…never! First and second pics are the 13-ft-wide “A Green Thought in a Green Shade” (1981), third is a detail of “Gamut” (from 1968, and likely not seen since ‘69), and fourth is detail of “Auguste” (1977). WOW! Link in bio … by @graceedquist

The highlight of my year: Jules and I got married in June, the weekend of the summer solstice. Fitting, we thought, given our lifelong pursuit of brightness and joy. We are really lucky to have had so much to celebrate this year when the world feels so raw. In my vows I spoke about being both a comfort and a catalyst for each other: sometimes you need a shield, and other times, a sword. To wield both well—maybe that’s our other lifelong pursuit.

Totally riveted by the swirling interior landscapes of @sigridsandstromstudio, whom I had the honor of speaking with ahead of her show at @anatebgigallery - which opens tonight in Tribeca! Sigrid paints with such heart and intuition. See these in person if you can. Link to article in bio by @graceedquist

What an immense treat to speak with the inimitable @lilystockman for Vogue’s September issue. Lily’s new show of paintings—tender confections of oysters shells and rhubarb and velvety cowlicks of marsh grass—opens next month at @charlesmoffettgallery in Tribeca. In print and on the web (link up top) now! by @graceedquist

Just a day before it closes, I caught the terrific Susan Weil show at the Shirley Fiterman Art Center. Time is her subject, and I couldn’t believe mine today: The artist herself, 95 and still very much making work, happened to be there as well. We talked about the show, and how I loved the draped mint green canvas (slide two), which I learned was titled Three Graces, after her mother. Time time time, indeed. taken in Shirley Fiterman Art Center at BMCC by @graceedquist

In January, I had the privilege of visiting the artist Sonia Gomes in her São Paulo studio to discuss her new installation for @stormkingartcenter, set to open in early May. Instead of draping from the ceiling, her enchanting pendulums will dangle from the branches of an oak tree. Incredible! As @larryosseimensah said, Sonia is a legend, and it was an honor to write about her. Link in bio. Portrait: Pablo Saborido. by @graceedquist
