The NEW YORK TIMES finally !!<\/em> kicked in with some really relevant contemporary reviews this past FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 2008 – and included a KAREN ROSENBERG review of this show. Sadly, it is noted – that DAVID ASKEVOLD died this past January, and that the show was planned before his death. The show is described as including a series of paintings he made last year and a video from the 90s. Ms. Rosenberg also notes that David Askevold was “a founding member of the 1970s contemporary scene in Halifax, Nova Scotia. {CANADA!!} {whose} . . .better-known participants included the ur-conceptualists Lawrence Weiner, Dan Graham and Lucy Lippard.” She concludes with a description of his short video ’16 Candles’, and says: “this elegant, evocative piece bears comparison to the work of fellow Canadian Conceptualist, Rodney Graham, and suggests that a more comprehensive look at Mr. Askevold’s work is in order.” <\/p>\n
