SELECTED GROUP EXHIBITIONS

2009 Mark Borghi Fine Arts Gallery, Bridgehampton, NY. Review by Eric Ernst for Hampton’s Press Oct 6^th 2009

http://www.27east.com/story_detail.cfm?id=238139 “ amid the names drawn from the pages of art history at Borghi is a mild surprise in the inclusion of a small, untitled aluminum sculpture by East End artist Phyllis Hammond that is both rhythmically engaging and whimsically thoughtful. Using thinly sliced metal that is bent to conjure apparitional harmonies in space, the work is dynamic despite its size and echoes in form and sensibility the Alexander Calder mobile that hangs farther back in the gallery.”
