Reviews
Remington achieved notoriety in the early 1960s for an inscrutable approach to hard edge abstraction, painting an iconography of irregular, organic shapes rendered with startling precision. Her heraldic imagery, both biomorphic and mechanistic at once, encircled luminous, mirror-like surfaces painted with gradients of black, white and gray. She painted the irregular perimeter of each shape with brilliant bands of orange, blue or green, as if the metallic surfaces within were a conduit for the bold, electric lines which surrounded them. ~ARTDAILY.COM
