About the Item

"I want the Color Bombs to be beacons of positivity that can radiate across the room or whisper quietly beside you. I love the freedom and openness of color. These works don’t bring any baggage or hidden agenda. They present a platform for each viewer to experience on their own. They are directly linked to my love of jazz and the trajectory of the soloing improviser. I want the Color Bombs to have form – to be earthbound, but to also venture out to where things are felt and not necessarily seen. To be ecstatic and full of verve and edge – like a saxophone exploding out of nowhere, or the sublime wail of a guitar rattling the windows. But these works also search for silence and quiet, and all the notes not played. They are like songs composed of shape and line that bask in the presence of absolute color representing nothing but themselves."

    Located in Toronto, Ontario
    "Woman in Pink, Blue, and Gray" is an acrylic on canvas painting measuring 24" tall by 18" wide. It's very active, with a woman wearing a colorful cap with feather, her tresses falling down behind/beside her, portrayed with cubist abandon as the artist folds in Picasso with Philip Guston... Note all the formal elements are present – her eyes, her smile, her dress and bosom – yet assemble and disassemble in front of our eyes. From Peter Schenck...

    By Charles Hinman
    Located in Greenwich, CT
    Our shaped canvas which also is a sculptural form in essence for a wall, is a geometric play of optical illusion. Hinman is an important pioneer of exploration in the contemporary world, away from the idea of the “square” and flat canvas. He is linked to such artists as Robert Indiana, James Rosenquist, Tom Wesselman and he pre-dated Frank Stella’s exploration of canvas as wall relief structures...
