Dan Riggens of Goodbye Blue Monday Coffeeshop recently pointed out that the latest copy of Art News contains a local scene. There is a full-page announcement of a solo gallery show in New York City of the artist Linden Frederick, and it appears that one of the paintings is the storefront of the Touchette Electric Building at 801 Division Street in Northfield, Minnesota. The painting frames the right-hand side of the building that contains a tuxedo rental business. Good catch, Dan! A link to the artist Linden Frederick can be found here, and his representation by the Forum Gallery here. The Spring 2007 issue of The Center for Furniture Craftsmanship Newsletter however provides a strong clue: “This summer Linden Frederick (Belfast, Maine) is riding a bicycle from Seattle to Boston as a part of his two-year project, “American Studies,” which will culminate in a show of the same title at the Forum Gallery in New York…”
