Ricardo Mulero
Burning Fog Over NYC: Abstract Color Field Landscape Painting of New York City

2020

About the Item

Abstract color-field landscape painting of the New York City skyline against an ethereal soft blue and red hazy sky "Burning Fog Over NYC" by Hudson, NY based artist, Ricardo Mulero, painted in 2020 54 x 48 x 2 inches, unframed, sides are cleanly painted a dark orange so framing is optional Excellent condition, ready to hang as is Signed by the artist Ricardo Mulero is fascinated with capturing the brilliance of light and the contrast of natural beauty with utilitarian landscapes. Here, he focuses on an intense red glow of a New York City skyline against a soft lilac blue sky. The vibrant light filled sky subtly transitions to a vivid red fog over the urban cityscape. Darker shades of dark red and grey suggest the forms of buildings behind the thick red fog. The artist captures brilliant luminosity and depth by building up paint layers with Venetian plaster, which also creates a beautifully smooth surface. The painting is in excellent condition and ready to hang. It's currently unframed but gesso is applied to the sides and painted a dark orange so framing is completely optional. About the Artist: Growing up in Puerto Rico, I observed how people and nature could co-exist in harmony. Today, that principle guides my design and artistic work. My paintings are expressions that draw upon my life experiences, traditions, and surroundings. These unique environments inspire my oil paintings: Puerto Rico, where I grew up, New York City, Fire Island Pines, and Hudson, NY, where I currently reside. I am especially drawn to utilitarian-type structures, and the contrast of the natural and constructed environments. I prepare each panel by hand, using traditional methods, which provide each piece with a distinct surface. Most of my artwork consists of oil paintings, which I create by using the Venetian method of layering colors to impart luminosity and depth. More about the artist: Mulero works as a designer and painter in Hudson, NY. In his exhibition design work, Ricardo has synthesized powerful narratives into relevant immersive experiences for history museums, such as the National September 11 Memorial Museum in New York City and the Field Museum in Chicago. His training in drawing and painting began at a young age under the supervision of Spanish painter, Don Luis Bouzà, in Caguas, Puerto Rico. In the spring of 2014, while teaching interior design at Parsons School of Design, he enrolled in an oil painting class -- which rekindled a new chapter in his painting. Since then, Ricardo has presented his work in solo and group exhibitions in Puerto Rico and New York City, including Peter Madero Gallery, Clemente Soto Velez Cultural Center, Ateneo Puertorriqueño, in San Juan, PR, Catskill, NY (at CREATE Council on the Arts), Taller Boricua in New York City, and FIPAP (Fire Island Pines Arts Project) Biennial. Ricardo Mulero continues to benefit from art coaching at Parsons and the New York Academy of Art in his evolution as an artist.
