REVIEWS

"Allain's new work resonates with a presence that holds austerity in check"
Robert C. Morgan
A Summation of Rene Pierre Allain's Recent Steel Bar Paintings
WHITEHOT MAGAZINE, April, 2011


"...scorched lines, dripping dots, and splatters that attest to the accident of production and the willingness to exploit chance by the maker."
Paul Behnke
René Pierre Allain and Larry Webb @ Sideshow Gallery
Structure and Imagery, May 6, 2011


"Allain works with steel, a difficult medium to say the least, and, like an aesthetic mechanic,
he torches with flame, etches with acid, and otherwise scars the shiny surface."
- Evan Mulvihill
Paper and String, April 14, 2011
