Gina Werfel
Hieroglyph (Abstract Expressionism painting)

2010

About the Item

Oil on canvas - Unframed For this painting, Gina Werfel used a series of gestural marks to generate a movement through the canvas, creating a sense of transparency through thin washes and using the drips to create a gridded effect. Werfel employs expressive, lyrical gestures that create bursts of movement and energy. Her color choices create a range of tones from the muted and serene to the vibrant and electric. Gina Werfel is an American abstract painter whose work uses vivid color, lyrical gesture, and complex compositional structures to explore harmonies within visual space. Raised on Long Island, she currently lives and works near Sacramento, California, where she is a Professor of Art at the University of California, Davis.

  • Volley (Abstract Painting)
    By Anya Spielman
    Located in London, GB
    Volley (Abstract Painting) Oil on canvas - Unframed Spielman uses oil paint on canvas, paper and panel in various sizes; she works on up to forty paintings at a time, moving between them as each begins to form, then isolating a work to bring to completion.

These etched lines and marks relate to an image and idea, and are often the underlying structure, the submerged language of a work. Her use of reds and pinks link to flesh and blood...
