Jonathan Lasker’s show at Cheim & Read is a happy mix of contradictions. It is these imagined scenarios that give Lasker’s work its strength. For his colorful paintings and his black-and-white graphite-and-ink series, he starts by drawing loose and spontaneous forms, like a cast of characters, and selects a few to combine into his final works. The result is a mélange of shapes, colors, techniques, and textures, formally arranged yet full of spontaneity. The way his characters in picture-book colors parade around the rooms mingles a playful narrative into each canvas.
