About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Joey Korom constructs an abstract expression of collaged materials. Cardboard, sheet music, wrapping paper, painting rag, and canary paper work together to produce a compelling composition. A portion of a trouser and its zipper lies on the upper right of the piece. "These can be found in a tailor's shop, and their inclusion here is the most important element," says Joey.
About the Artist
Joey Korom is an abstract expressionist painter who has been a practicing artist for 50 years. He experiments with media, colors, and textures to produce artwork that is “purely optical;†that is, artwork meant to engage the viewer, visually and emotionally, without employing any associations outside of the work itself. Joey is passionate about this expressive type of abstraction, an artistic mode that escapes the rules of perspective and realism. His educational and professional background is in architecture, which he considers to be “the father of all arts.†The use of line, shape, and proportion in Joey’s work is visibly influenced by his experience as an architect, but he seeks to avoid the rigidity involved in architectural draftsmanship. He focuses instead on underlying structure, seductive color, and loose brushwork. The artist sees his style as a personal liberation from the demands of architectural drawing, and yet, he’s never lost the disciplines he was taught.
