Adam Green on Jacqueline Gourevitch
The Armory Show
September 22, 2026
I expected my discovery from the fair to be a young, emerging artist, but instead it was Jacqueline Gourevitch, a painter born in 1933. I was drawn to her Cloud Paintings, a series she began in the 1960s. She used clouds to explore how something observed in nature can hover between landscape and abstraction, making subtle shifts in light and color the real subject. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that she exhibited in the 1973 Whitney Biennial and is represented in a number of major museum collections. – Adam Green
