Selected Reviews/Articles:
“Richard Bogart has had many one-man shows in New York since he first arrived from the Midwest in the early 60’s…I see Bogart as part of a tradition of quietism in modern American painting, traceable through Avery, Bagiotes, Newman, Stamos and above all, Rothko.”
Lawrence Campbell, Art in America
“The most engaging landscapes in the contemporary whirl.”
Time Magazine
“Richard Bogart…redeems a whole line of soft-focus hazy landscape by virtue of its superior poetry, strength, and delicacy.”
Hilton Kramer, The New York Times
“Like the work of great landscape painters of the past, Bogart’s simple scenes produce a feeling of awe.”
John Ashberry, Art News
“These are brilliant, oddly chilling pictures, intensely personal and skilled.”
J.K.H., Arts Magazine
