 This week Mark Staff Brandl interviews ex-pat artist Leonard Bullock.  Here is some text crassly cut and pasted from somewhere else: Leonard Bullock originally from North Carolina and New York City,has lived in Europe for the last 15 years, frequently exhibiting inSwitzerland and Germany. ... Bullock is a painters' painter, his direct factureinfluencing many better-known contemporaries such as the young Swissartist Lori Hersberger. While Bullock often paints on surprisingsurfaces such as fiberglass or silk, the most arresting aspect of hiswork has been his mark-making, which is somewhat reminiscent of deKooning in that it aspires to an indexical demonstration of sensation.Bullock does not copy his inspirational sources but rather updatesthem. He aligns a wide variety of strokes into tilted vectors, formingabstract totem poles that appear to swerve through space. His sense oftouch reveals a painter more concerned with Titian and with questionsof disparateness than with expressionism. In the "outro" to this weeks show, Duncan defends the good name of Joseph Mohan, against Richard's inappropriate commentary.
