"Light Black Blur #2" Charcoal Cross-Hatch Drawing Canvas 1978 Monumental Piece
Located in Arp, TX
Jack Scott "Light Black Blur #2" 1978 Charcoal on unprimed canvas sprayed with custom fixative 177.25x83.25" unstretched Signed on reverse Installation: This piece is intended to be stretched and stapled to the wall without a frame. Excellent Condition - Minor wear consistent with age and history. This canvas is a testament to the artist's meticulous craftsmanship and creative vision. The intricate charcoal cross-hatch arches create a captivating play of light and shadow, each mark bearing the artist's hand. To enhance and preserve this piece, the artist has applied multiple layers of their custom-made a fixative. This carefully curated process not only protects the delicate charcoal work but also adds depth and texture to the piece. The result is a mesmerizing work of art that begs viewers to explore its intricate details and reveals new dimensions with each look. About the work: Working on large unstretched canvases, Jack Scott draws charcoal arcs in a freehand style. Through placement and density the arcs create patterns of light and dark, vibrating with a luminescence unanticipated by the rawness of the materials. In previous works the arcs coalesced into amorphous forms—romantic sensations suggesting clouds, smoke or fog. With his recent works Scott introduces a concrete graphic form, large bisecting arcs that are giant magnifications of the minutely rendered arcs. Environmental romanticism yields to a bolder sensibility, as these shapes bear relationship to configurations favored by Minimalists and hard-edge abstractionists. However, Scott’s web of soft, undulating arcs subverts the large-scale coolness of the primary form. In this sense the artist’s works remind one of Rothko, whose monumental forms were also conceived through a diffused or soft-edge development. The method of building up freehand forms is remarkable considering the massive scale favored by the artist. From this standpoint his drawing seems imbued with a medieval intensity, displaying a feeling for concentration and handcraft that is often absent from contemporary art. —Hal Fischer
