Much recent art has actually involved overt social and political subjects and has included text or identifiable, often media-based imagery. Just how is looking at a painting, without an immediate exterior research, a different knowledge when it comes to audience? While this exhibition tends to make no claim of comprehensiveness, the variety of techniques used by the ten participating designers indicate the vigor and relevance of abstraction as it gets near its centennial.
Curators Ron Platt and Helaine Posner have put together a sizable number of musicians to explore abstraction in painting today. April Hankin’s deft mathematics injects a freshness in to the custom of organized mark-making. Fandra Chang’s hard-edged geometries defy hardnosed analysis in both their particular mysterious procedure for production and their particular similarly mysterious result. David Ortins’s geometric forms discover their particular sounds into the strong quality of primary colors whilst they loosen and complicate their particular contours. Sandy Walker revivifies the tradition of expressionist painting as an arena of self-encounter; JoAnn Rothschild is also driven to generate areas and situations “in which we apprehend ourselves.”
The previous history of abstract painting is a well-stocked hunting ground for several among these performers; Shirley Kaneda and Fabian Marcaccio are perhaps the most forthright inside their self-conscious pillaging of themes and products to new and sassy result. Dona Nelson provides herself over to the high-risk unpredictability of the woman products, free-associating as she scavenges from earlier in the day painters along with other abstract practices. The paradoxical inexhaustibility of solitary shade artwork is demonstrated by the wise, handsome, and oddly going conceptual panels of Byron Kim. Prudencio Irazabal’s magical monochromes belie the literalism of many superimposed paint layers he makes subjected along the sides.
Public Events:
