Marcy Rosenblat
Marcy Rosenblat is an American abstract process painter. Her paintings and prints are layered, colorful and complex. She was born in Chicago, Illinois. She currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Rosenblat describes herself as having an affinity for process art, a method of art-making in which predetermined systems and techniques largely determine the outcome of the work. The textured appearance of her paintings emanates from the intervention of common household products such as paper towels during the painting process. To begin each painting, she lays the canvas flat on a moveable easel then pours paint onto the surface. She then tilts the easel in predetermined ways, turning it then tilting it again, allowing the paint to drip down the surface. She then presses the paper towels or other textured products into the wet paint. The pressing leaves behind the imprint of the surface of the textured product, while simultaneously revealing the under layers of paint. It is a process of covering and revealing. Meanwhile, each successive layer of paint drips onto the sides of the canvas, so that in the end all colors used in the painting can be discovered on the periphery, even though some of them may have ultimately been obscured or removed from the surface. Rosenblat is inspired by the idea of revelation and obfuscation that is what we see versus what is hidden from us. She wants viewers to see her final product as a finished phenomenon but also wants to offer them a chance to peek behind the curtain, so to speak. Each layer of paint is like a veil, through which viewers can see the inner workings of her craft. She is inspired by the idea that this will invite people to look more closely at things. Rosenblat is also inspired by the patterns she sees on ordinary surfaces, especially those not usually related to painting. That was the genesis of her choice to start using paper towels in her work and the same vein, she often photographs the surfaces of the ground, the street and objects she sees in the store then use those photographs to create textures and patterns that will serve as layers of color in her paintings and prints. Rosenblat has exhibited extensively, especially in and around New York City. Her selected exhibitions include Fordham University, Galerie Berlin am Meer, The Rawls Museum and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Her work has also been featured on Hyperallergic.
