Greg Slick’s paintings, drawings and sculpture reflect a fascination with late stone age art. In this interview he shares childhood memories of neolithic ruins and how their “muteness” provided fodder for his creative practice.
Greg also discusses the galleries that cropped up in Beacon in the years after Dia:Beacon opened and assesses the Hudson Valley’s art scene today. Greg was the co-owner of a celebrated gallery, Go North (2006-2009), and his wife Karlyn Benson operated her own gallery, Matteawan (2013-2018).
