About the Item

Urszula Wilk – artist statment: I have always been interested in the idea of infiniteness of a painting and its opposite – that is the physical finiteness of the painting. This physical finiteness of a painting appears when the painting acquires its physical, material dimension. For me, the crucial thing is whether a painting, which was created in a certain period and constitutes a closed whole – can change. Through its modular construction the picture’s painting structure generates infiniteness within itself. Can a finished, in a sense “closed” whole become something new again and again? Can it expand and divide or overlap and thicken, transform all the time? ‘ If reality never rests, to paraphrase Futurist painter Boccioni, painting – once it has been drawn out of the frame of a painting – becomes an immaterial space that can be visited and crossed; it becomes an environment of light, a visual, spatial, total and involving experience.” Urszula Wilk graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław. In 1986 she received her diploma with honours at Professor Zbigniew Karpiński’s atelier. In 1987 and 1988 Urszula Wilk was a grantee of the Minister of Culture and Art.

  • Busy Blue (Abstract Checkered Pattern Gouache and Collage on Paper)
    By Donise English
    Located in Hudson, NY
    Donise English Busy Blue, 2020 14" X 17" gouache and collage on paper This abstract geometric composition on paper features a playful geometric motif that is inspired by the artist's interest in architecture and blueprint drawings. The geometric forms are made in a more painterly, gestural manner rather than with a hard edge. Paint is not heavily built up upon the surface but it certainly exhibits a tactile quality which is characteristic of the artist's aesthetic. English's work celebrates the quirky, unexpected qualities of shapes and colors. About the artist: Donise English is a Poughkeepsie-based artist who received her MFA from Bard College and is currently a Professor of Studio Art at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY. Artist Statement: I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space. For each piece I create a set of rules to follow about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curving lines or maintain a rectilinear structure.
