Jerry Saltz Says This Artist Is ‘Like A Badger Of Painting’

“[Albert] Oehlen is like a badger of painting, a cross between a weasel and a small bear, fearlessly scouring painting’s possibilities, implications, and metaprograms, scavenging for sweet spots, weaknesses, ways to decode, remap, and break down the medium … I love his work, but I am not even sure that I actually like it.”
