Excerpt from NY Times review By KAREN ROSENBERG
Published: December 6, 2012
Paul DeMuro’s New York solo debut sparks with all kinds of painterly electricity, combining 1980s Neo-Expressionism, for instance, with up-to-the-minute techno-shamanism.
Almost all the paintings are built around blue, green and purple diamond shapes and Xs that look a bit like quartz crystals, with their subtle gradations of color and ridged brush strokes. But most of the action takes place along the edges, where silhouettes of hands and flowers (along with various abstract flourishes) creep into the central areas of the canvas and disrupt their talismanic formalism.
