"Joe McAleer's paintings engage us as participants in a complex perceptual game. Comprised of contrasting patterns of color, texture, and form, which fill the canvas from edge to edge, his restless abstractions elude a fleeting encounter. Rather, they absorb our attention with rhythmic structures and visual anomalies designed to stimulate and perplex our senses. McAleer's kaleidoscopic abstractions have their basis in the humble Modernist's grid,......"

Joseph McAleer
McAleer is an artist and lifelong educator based in NJ. He earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Rowan University, and has exhibited his work up and down the east coast, including major solo exhibitions at Bridgette Mayer Gallery and Locks Gallery in Philadelphia, PA. "All my work originates from my personal experience of life, my worldview. I am continually challenged by the infinite, creative possibilities that exist within the flat, 2D picture plane. The work I have done for the last several years involves what I call “erasing.” Using mostly an opaque, layering process, I “erase” large passages of previously created forms. Repeating this process of layering several times offers many open-ended possibilities of discovery. Curved edge orientation and layering techniques are also integral to my invented non-objective work. By using this continuous, natural (organic) process, I rely on instinct and intuition to move the work forward. Complex, layered shapes, a soft palette, nuances of line, subtle textures, shape and background are all brought into relationship with each other." – Joseph McAleer
