Matt Johnson, who formerly showed at Taxter & Spengemann, which closed at the end of last year, is now represented by Chelsea's 303 Gallery.The artist announced the news this afternoon on his Facebook page.

Mr. Johnson is a conceptual sculptor whose pieces have ranged from severe minimalism (a box with two blocks of wood resting on it) to incredibly intricate--like his maple wood sculpture of an apple core made of a network of intertwining staircases.

This is the second Taxter & Spengemann artist this week to land at a new gallery. Earlier, we reported that Frank Benson would now show at Andrew Kreps. Pascal Spengemann also found a new home this week as director of Marlborough Chelsea.
