Anne Francey
Transformations (Large Modern Abstract Painting in Bold Colors)

c. 1998

About the Item

Horizontal abstract acrylic painting on canvas in colorful hues of periwinkle blue, red, golden yellow, peach, black and green. 40 x 84 inches unframed This contemporary abstract painting was created by Saratoga, NY-based artist Anne Francey. The horizontal painting is comprised of gestural applications of paint in complex cross hatching patterns and organic designs. Under layers of painting in colorful hues of peach, golden yellow, and periwinkle blue contrast strikingly against stark black outlines and moss green cross hatching patterns. In some areas, thin layers of paint reveal interesting forms and under paintings. This painting is lightweight and can be easily hung with the pre-installed wire. About the Configuration series: Anne Francey writes, 'The tile-like ceramic pieces are to be hung on a wall like paintings. The relationship between geometric patterns and various configurations reflects on our need to find meaning in the events that shape our lives. But while geometric designs inevitably incorporate the unpredictable nature of the hand and fire that modeled it, more organic shapes strive to find a semblance of order.' About the artist: Anne Francey’s observation of the natural world has always been the point of departure in her clay work, evolving into a constant oscillation between representation and abstraction, organic shapes and geometric order, what's being shown and what's being hidden. Whether starting from a flower, a twig, an insect or a moss. Francey simplifies and flattens their shapes, blurring their visual identity in order to reveal a hidden meaning. Of her work, the artist states, “Could these abstracted forms of insects and plants, hardened for ever in the fired clay, become imprints of the past one day, like fossils of a bygone era?” Anne Francey currently resides in Saratoga Springs, New York.

  • Courier (Modern, Black Blue & White Minimalist Abstract Painting on Canvas)
    By Betsy Weis
    Located in Hudson, NY
    Monochromatic and minimalist dark abstract painting on canvas Acrylic on canvas, 24 x 32 inches This contemporary, horizontal painting was made by Manhattan based artist, Betsy Weis in 1999. The abstract painting, composed of a primarily dark palette, contains subtle shades of blue, white, and light beige in rectangular formations behind a sheer veil of black acrylic paint. Minimalist in nature, the work concentrates on an ethereal sense of space and depth. This painting on canvas is currently unframed and is ready to hang as is. For painter Betsy Weis, the wild and beautiful essence of nature has been a prevailing inspiration for her work. This influence is not unfounded considering the artist grew up in the coastal region of the Pacific Ocean and studied the work of Titian, Giorgione, and Friedrich. Her use of acrylic results in an eerie, almost dream-like haze that evokes one’s own connection to nature. Through this veil, the viewer is left to contemplate the mystery of nature and the continuous evolution of the human memory, from the past into the present. Weis has shown with the gallery for more than a decade and resides in New York City. Betsy Weis is represented by Carrie Haddad Gallery based in Hudson, NY.
