In a review of must-see shows in New York for The New York Times, writer and critic John Vincler selected David Zwirner’s current exhibition Michaël Borremans: The Acrobat. Applauding the artist, Vincler declared that “Michaël Borremans may be the greatest living figurative painter.” “He renders skin with such intensity that the living, breathing, blood-coursing nature of the human being becomes vividly alive,” writes Vincler.” “It’s painterly magic.” Michaël Borremans: The Acrobat is on view through June 4 at David Zwirner’s 525 West 19th Street location in New York.
