ART 511 Magazine
Well known art writer and poet Jonathan Goodman's review of "Abstract Singularity" at Lichtundfire, NYC. Here is what he wrote about V. Borchert's artwork:
Vian Borchert’s 2021 suite of black-and-white paintings–from top to bottom, Counter Ceiling, Buildings, Windy City, Rooftop
Dreams–present urban scenes in black on a white background. Urban structures–right-angled building forms–are partially
rendered, creating a language of nearly visionary architecture. Sometimes, in small passages in parts of paintings, something
free-flowing and abstract, not unlike the effects of a Franz Kline work, emerges. These works capture the spirit of urban
life in memorable ways. When an artist like Borchert calls upon what she actually sees, she also has a habit of making it a
bit more dramatic than life. The results are, as the title of the show says, “singular.”
