ART BLOSSOMS INTO ‘PARADISE’ AT CADE TOMPKINS PROJECTS

CATE MCQUAID, THE BOSTON GLOBE, MARCH 4, 2021

…..”Friese, Krueger, and Dilworth’s paintings were all finished in 2020. It warmed me just to imagine the painters continuing to create – like a fruit tree – as we gritted our teeth through the last year. Art and creation still matter. Beauty is a salvation. We go on.”
