Jeffrey Kurland
"BLACK MIRROR", Abstract Painting, Crystalline Purple, Black, Violet, Shards

2020

About the Item

The large abstract painting "BLACK MIRROR" by Jeffrey Kurland is an acrylic on canvas measuring 94" tall by 72" wide. BLACK MIRROR is new work from the long hot summer of 2020. Often employing paints and pigments from surprising sources (automotive manufacturers, industrial finishers), here specifically the artist uses Dioxazine purple, black, titan violet and pale white to evoke the expanse of a mirror with no reflection, and a crystalline structure suggesting glass, onyx and pewter. Jeffrey has developed his own methods and techniques to achieve this structure. He doesn't use brushes but pours and directs the paint using a variety of methods. Kurland embraces spontaneity and intuition – there are no preparatory sketches. In this manner he pursues as much as captures the painting. Innovating technically, building structure on the canvas and pushing color abstraction forward on his own terms – bending, breaking, flowing and channeling color. Broad gesture and active, tactile surfaces emerge from the canvas through his experimental process and approach to materials, application and composition. Jeffrey Kurland received his BFA in Painting and Printmaking from the University of Michigan, and an MFA in Painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Michigan. He’s been living and working in New York City since 1976, developing his art practice which includes painting, drawing, collage, monoprints, and book arts.
