Review Excerpts
“Ms. Daar’s constructions deal with rhythms...and effectively occupy the middle ground between the tangible and the abstract ... as if to challenge the imagination.”
Helen A. Harrison, The New York Times
“Ms. Daar builds layered constructions that suggest the rhythmic interplay of forms and an ongoing dialogue between geometric and organic abstraction.”
Helen A. Harrison, The New York Times
“Sculpture is especially strong in the 48th Long Island Artists' Exhibition at the Heckscher Museum. Ro Daar's painted wall relief, The F to Midtown, pays homage to 1930's modernism.”
Helen A. Harrison, The New York Times
“Ro Daar shows her taste for music in First Chord, a handsome white wood piece which is an unusual and bold composition.”
Arlyne Boltson, The Northport Journal
“Ms. Daar’s work is substantial. It overcomes its medium and really expresses form.”
Barb Dougherty, editor, Art Calendar Magazine
