Kellyann Burns creates taut and luscious minimal paintings and drawings that trace their roots to earlier minimal and color field paintings, plus not so spare collages cut from the sandpaper she uses to pare away her paint surfaces. According to Laurel Reuter, Museum Director of the North Dakota Museum of Art, “This Brooklyn artist continues to feed my inner need to look at painting. Her most beautiful creations exist in a world that thinks it has lost its appetite for both painting and beauty.”
