Josette Urso
Josette Urso "Oh So!" -- Abstract Oil Painting on Canvas

2020

About the Item

Josette Urso Oh So!, 2020 oil on canvas 48 x 60 in. (urso192) New York painter Josette Urso paints intuitively in reaction to her immediate surroundings, from both inside and outside her studio. Using an intense, delicate manipulation of paint, she gets lost in the act of painting with blissful abandon, creating sumptuous abstractions that reference landscape, still life, and views of New York City. Urso’s surfaces are dense tapestries of small, energetic marks. She mixes colors softly on the canvas, blending them just enough to leave minute stripes of color remaining in the grooves of her brushstrokes. The obsessive dabs and flourishing marks relay her sense of joy in capturing her observations. Exploring the mystery of our perception of time and space, the works seem close up and far away simultaneously. They seek to reflect multiple moments occurring at once in order to comment on a live experience. An endless stream of information is constantly projected at a person from all directions; Urso’s work acts as a filtering of the physical, thoughtful, auditory, visual and even technological stimuli that we interact with at any point in time. Josette Urso received her MFA in Painting from the University of South Florida in Tampa. Urso’s work has been exhibited widely across the country, including the New York Public Library, The Drawing Center, and the Bronx Museum for the Arts. She has been awarded numerous grants and residencies, in particular, from the National Endowment for the Arts, Basil H. Alkazzi, and the Pollock-Krasner Foundation as well as the Camargo Foundation and Yaddo, The Alma B.C. Schapiro Residency in Sarasota Springs, NY and the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation Grant. Urso lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.

  • Deborah Dancy "In Short Order" - Abstract Oil Painting on Canvas
    By Deborah Dancy
    Located in New York, NY
    Deborah Dancy In Short Order, 2021 oil on canvas 26 x 24 in. (dan031) This original contemporary abstract oil painting on canvas by Deborah Dancy is comprised of blue, orange, cream, and black hues in her signature built up/re-built space. Deborah Dancy is an abstract artist. Her paintings and drawings are sensuous provocations beset with marks that guide, then abruptly collide into confrontational slabs of color. There is an atmosphere of complex but urgent tension in her work, as she builds tangential linear demarcations, and abutting shapes, that provoke, entice and disrupt; -taking us everywhere and nowhere. From densely painted forms to more minimally declared images, Dancy’s work operates in the recognition that meanderings, intentional and accidental declarations are best when the beautiful and the disconcerting exist simultaneously. Deborah Dancy was born in Bessemer, Alabama and raised in Chicago, Illinois. She earned BFA from Illinois Wesleyan University and an MS and an MFA from Illinois State University. She is the recipient of John Simon Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship, a Yaddo Fellow, and a National Endowment of the Arts NEFA award. Her work is in many collections including The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Birmingham Museum of Art, The Hunter Museum and The Detroit Institute of Art. N’Namdi Contemporary Miami, Robischon...
