Abstract Expressions From index page... "Tanked" Oil on Canvas and from rollovers... "Starfire," "Madonna," and "Dead Sea." Visit our individual galleries to see more Abstract Expressionism is a form of art in which artists express themselves purely through the use of form and color. It is a form of non-representational, or non-objective, art, which means that concrete objects do not have to be represented. The movement can be broadly divided into two groups: Action Painting, typified by artists such as Pollock, de Kooning, Franz Kline, and Philip Guston, put the focus on the physical action involved in painting; Color Field Painting, practiced by Mark Rothko and Kenneth Noland, among others, was primarily concerned with exploring the effect of pure color on a canvas. Our pieces combine both aspects of the Abstract Expressionism movement and are created on a sculpted-gesso under layer. We then use multiple layers of oil glazes, opaques, metallics and Jacquard Pearl-Ex. The combined effect creates texture that traps and refracts light to make the paintings glimmer as the ambient light changes throughout the day. We hope you enjoy the trip! Upcoming Shows
