About the Item

JAMES SIENA Connected Orthogonal Hooks (Green), 2015 Graphite on paper Paper Dimensions: 11 x 8 7/16 inches 27.9 x 21.4 cm Framed Dimensions: 17 13/16 x 15 5/16 x 1 1/4 inches 45.2 x 38.9 x 3.2 cm Signed, titled, and dated (verso) -- James Siena is celebrated for his inimitable process of creating intricate abstractions, driven by a practice of self-imposed rules termed visual algorithms. The artist preemptively determines his marks and actions and repeats them procedurally as his works result in intensely concentrated, vibrantly colored, freehand compositions. His oeuvre often references diagrams, complex puzzles, labyrinths, and mapping, resulting in inward meditations that actively engage traditions of pattern and mark-making in an ongoing exploration of scale, materiality, and interaction of color. Maneuvering across a diverse range of mediums, including painting, sculpture, drawing, lithography, etching and woodcuts, his work has placed him firmly within the canon of contemporary American art. For more than four decades, Siena’s rule-based linear abstractions have been strongly associated with the machine / human interface. “The way the paintings act as machines,” the artist has pointed out, “is you have to find your way into them and find your way out of them.” James Siena (b. 1957, Oceanside, CA) lives and works in New York, NY and Otis, MA.

"Opposite Underlap" Contemporary Green and Aqua Hand Drawn Tessellated Abstract
Located in Houston, TX
Hand drawn op art painting by contemporary artist Austin Magruder. The work features abstract, geometric tessellations that create a mesmerizing pattern. Signed and dated in the front lower right corner. Currently hung in a white floating frame. Dimensions Without Frame: H 24 in. x W 17.88 in. Artist Biography: After discovering his ability and passion for geometric art, Austin constantly challenges himself to expand the boundaries of geometric pattern. His use of vibrant colors intertwined with never ending paths results in a 3 dimensional surprise to the naked eye. Austin had some schooling at Glassell School of Art, but is self taught in the realm of geometric art. He has always been creative and interested in arts as a means of escape. Over the past several years Austin started dedicating more of his time to his passion for creating art. Austin started coloring geometric patterns, primarily mandala drawings during Dialysis treatments in 2016. Eventually becoming inspired to learn to draw with a compass and ruler. One thing lead to another and now he has discovered over 120 tessellatons. During late 2018 to Spring 2020, Austin was a tenant at Sawyer Yards and attended several classes Glassell School of Art from 2019 to early 2020. Since this time, he worked for a commercial screen...
