About the Item
"Configuration Series 5," is a contemporary Abstract painting by San Jose based artist Helen Bellaver. In this work, Helen layers a medium onto her paper to create subtle texture, which she then layers her acrylic paint on to create depth and detail. This work creates a sense of energy as the eye is drawn to the rich black and complimented with warm tones of Sienna that intertwines into the foreground of the painting.
Helen Bellaver is an abstract expressionist living in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she has been practicing for the last thirty years. Her work has evolved into expressions of black. To the artist, black brings her a sense of calm, and is the forefront of her works. She uses it as her foreground, and in the background she has layers of creams, whites, blues, ochres, browns, reds etc. The mark making on her works come directly from the genre of Abstract Expressionism, and her emotions breakthrough the compositions powerfully. Her canvases are worked and worked, with an immense amount of depth to them. Pictures do not do her work justice, and video is truly the way to see her work virtually. We have many videos of her work, feel free to inquire to see one specifically. Bellaver's work has been published, exhibited and collected for decades across the United States. She has been practicing art in the Bay Area since the 1970's and has played an integral role in the region's abstract scene. She currently works out of the historic and coveted Alameda Artworks Studios near downtown San Jose, and is represented by Gallery 1202 where her latest solo show, "An Affair with Black: Abstract Expressionism by Helen Bellaver," drew large crowds and was well reviewed.
