I’m late to John Yau’s essay on Bernice Bing, the late Bay Area artist who explored the abstractionist movements of the mid-20th century, and then developed a synthesis of her own of west coast abstraction, calligraphy, and Zen. But it’s not too late to see the exhibition built around the 20 pieces of Bing’s work recently acquired by the Asian Art Museum. The show, curated by Abby Chen, runs through June 26, 2023.
