ERIC FISCHL


ART:
Eric Fischl is showing glowingly intense paintings of bullfighters and bulls, death and dying, and older men and great clothes. There’s even a sexed-up subplot: As you progress through the show, blurred-out and missing genitals give way to guys with butts so cute your heart will go pitter-pat, regardless of what team you play for. It’s Fischl’s sexiest, saddest, and best show in years. NYMAG
Thru 12/19 at Mary Boone Gallery Chelsea 541 W.24 Th St. NYC
