This event has ended.

Museum 52 presents the first solo exhibition for New York based Julia Goldman. Goldman is in collections internationally. Though it is her first solo presentation, this will be her third showing at Museum 52.

"My imagination is limited and my ideas are vague. But I want to make paintings that are thorough - brought to a finish (and hopefully a finish that resonates with experience, that reveals the contradictory and unsettling nature and complexity of the commonplace). I think any subject is potentially unsettling, but I choose familiar ones (my face, my clothes, the stuff in my studio) because I can evaluate them easily. They are legible. I have studied them, and I know what I do and don't like about them. I can transform them, dissect them, simplify them, and destroy them with confidence. They provide criteria for proceeding with a painting, and that criteria is based on years of observation and consideration. This is the best way I know." Goldman 2009
