Jeffrey Kurland
"LAKE SUPERIOR", Abstract Painting, Acrylic on Canvas, Blue Silver Violet

2020

About the Item

The large abstract painting "LAKE SUPERIOR" by Jeffrey Kurland, with acrylic paint on canvas measuring 72" tall by 96" wide, is new work from the long summer of 2020. Often employing paints and pigments from surprising sources (automotive manufacturers, industrial finishers), here specifically the artist uses Ultramarine Blue and Dioxazine Purple – the frozen blues, silvers and violets – that make up this striking, abstract waterscape. 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.
