About the Item
Blue Statue, 2020
"For Blackburn, the Western’s heroic drama, good-versus-evil narrative, and assertive landscape are challenges to face in her work. These aspects of film can overwhelm a painting, thus distancing the viewer from the art. She wants the art to be dominant; “Painting wins,” she declares. She finds this happens when a painting possesses what she terms “classical balance.” By this the artist means that everything is where it needs to be compositionally—nothing can be changed—and “the whole can be seen at once.”
Linda Blackburn’s paintings are eye-catching for many reasons: their striking use of colors, engrossing brushwork, fascinating spaces, interaction of abstraction and representation, and, sometimes, playful humor. Yet, for her, the images are not intended to be about Western films or the West, nor are they meant nostalgically or ironically. Ultimately, they are about the nature and reality of painting. As an artist, her goal is to bring the viewer continually back to painting itself." Dr. Mark Thistlethwaite, Kay and Velma Chair of Art History, Texas Christian University
