John Wood
Beauty & Wonder

2016

About the Item

Beauty & Wonder, by John Wood, 40 x 40 inches, mixed media on paper mounted on panel. Bare wood edges. John Wood’s beautiful abstract imagery is the culmination of a lifetime of work in art. His current work uses the human form and landscape as starting points to build up layers of line, form and color in graphite, crayon, oil pastel and enamel. He strives to be as open and engaged as possible with the developing image, trusting that the art will lead him in the right direction. In the end, the work alludes to the real world only symbolically, but John is much more interested in the emotional and sensual qualities that emerge rather than any recognizable forms. Over the years, the artist’s work has been extensively exhibited, and has been acquired by public, corporate and private collectors nationwide. A large work by Mr. Wood was recently acquired for the permanent art collection of the city of Emeryville, California, and it is now on display in Emeryville City Hall. His work is included in the Salt Lake County Art Collection and was recently purchased and added to the Utah State Fine Art Collection. He was invited to exhibit his work at the American Embassy in Zagreb, Croatia through the U.S. State Department’s Art in Embassies Program.

  • Inland Crossing 35
    By Hyunmee Lee
    Located in Salt Lake City, UT
    The gestural paintings of Hyunmee Lee are sumptuously minimal. Rich forms advance from buttery canvases like an abstract garden. Gauzy veils of paint hover like soft air against the ebony weight of matter. Light peeks through translucent shapes like sunlight illuminating soft mist. Texture swirls and echoes across the canvas as if carved by waves or eroded by the wind. The viewer, invited into a realm of contemplation and meditation, is surprised to look away and see the physical world existing in only three dimensions. But perhaps that is precisely the experience the artist would like the viewer to have. In her current exhibition, Touch, on display at the Phillips Gallery...
