Reviews:
Helen Harrison: The New York Times – May 16, 2004
“The current show is an homage to the artist’s ability to transform the urban wasteland into elegant pictorial statements.”
[Ice House Gallery]
Marion Wolberg-Weiss: Dan’s Papers – May 10, 2013
“Works made of casein and beeswax are both abstract and impressionistic; the artist’s rendering of a truck is a good example of the fantasy-like quality that distinguishes the exhibit.”
Charles Winheld’s work is represented in several private collections in the New York, Philadelphia, and Boston areas.
