]This gem of a work is an acrylic painting on paper by renowned Abstract Color Field painter Jay Rosenblum (1933–1989), featuring his trademark bold and dramatic color stripes done with a paint roller.
Jay Rosenblum has taught at Hunter College, the School of Visual Arts in NY and the Cleveland Art Institute. Primarily an abstract artist, he has exhibited in some of the finest galleries in New York and the Northeast. His colorful prints appear in the permanent collections of the Whitney and Corcoran. He died in 1989 at the age of 55. Jay Rosenblum, a gifted musician and talented painter, coined the term “Free Association Color Development” to describe his vibrant and expressive color block paintings. Based on his love of Classical music, he felt that a painting should come together similar to a sonata, with various notes falling into a synchronistic compilation to create a sensory experience as a whole. He worked with this expressive “visual stripe motif” for over thirty years.
Born and raised in the Bronx, Rosenblum’s life was on a clear trajectory toward the arts from the very beginning. He attended the High School of Music and Art, then went on to receive his Bachelor’s from Bard College, finally studying at Cranbrook Academy of Fine Arts. His creative talents were not limited to 2 or 3D work, he was also a gifted violinist, and played with the Seventh Army Symphony in the 1950s. In addition to making work, he also had an extensive teaching career, molding young minds at the Visual School of Arts, the Cleveland Art Institute, and Hunter College.
Rosenblum was awarded the Carlos Lopez Memorial Prize in Painting from the Detroit Institute of Art in 1955, as well as the Painter of Year Award from Larry Aldrich in 1970. He was also selected to design and execute two major murals in New York City.

- Untitled Geometric Abstraction Minimalist painting unique signed renowned artistBy Winston RoethLocated in New York, NYAn exquisite work of geometric abstraction by this celebrated artist Winston Roeth Untitled, ca. 1996 Pastel on handmade paper Hand signed on the front Frame included: Floated and framed in the original wood frame with uv plexiglass Measurements: Framed: 13.5"h x 12.75"w Artwork: 10"h x 9"w More about Winston Roeth: At first glance Roeth’s painted panels of wood or slate appear very simple: flat planes of colour that look a certain way, but which shift in the changing light or as you move around them. They are exquisitely painted in layers of velvety pigment and reveal their secrets slowly: quiet combinations that play gentle tricks on the eye - simultaneously drawing the viewer into dense voids and bouncing the gaze back with a vibrant intensity. Roeth’s compositions are distilled to this apparent simplicity through the most minimal ingredients. Sometimes a picture is divided into grids, a geometric harmony of lines and colours, so that the matt expanse of paint is broken up by shimmeringly luminous lines in a perfect balance of light, depth and colour. Others combine planes of a single colour with a contradictory border: an edge on which the picture turns. In a world so accustomed to instant gratification Winston Roeth’s paintings require and reward an unusual level of contemplation. Roeth is based in Beacon, New York...Category
