About the Item
52" x 34”(oil, graphite on canvas) signed on reverse by the artist.
This multi-panel painting by Mark Masyga is composed of 10 oil on wood painted wood panels. This painting installation style expands the viewing area and creates an additional visual depth with shifting ground colors. Brushstrokes connect and flow to others of different colors, nearly meeting shapes or thicknesses when they reach a panel’s edge, and end up going somewhere else entirely. White gaps between the panels of A Celluloid Dickey, a Razor and Two 8-Balls act as punctuation, stopping the eye or drawing attention to internal edges.
This linear abstract painting is from a new body of work entitled, "Charitable Deceptions". The painting is developed through a multilayered process of application and removal of painted and drawn lines, forms and color. The resulting painting has a sense of static movement within the illusionary space of the canvas. The linear forms of color emerge with clarity from the ground colors; reminiscent of bent wire, they overlap and intertwine to engage with each other.
In this painting, Masyga continues his interest in combining mark-making aspects of drawing and with fields and washes of oil paint. Within the added layers of pencil lines and painted swaths is also evidence of erasure. Paint covers some marks completely; elsewhere he leaves traces of previous lines and colors, either seeping through or visible along the edges.
Mark Masyga received his MFA from the Art Institute of Chicago and currently lives and works in New York. Masyga has participated in the Edward F. Albee residency in Montauk, New York, Skowhegan, Maine, and was featured in the PS 1 Studio Visit Program. Mark Masyga has exhibited extensively in New York and nationally. He is represented by Front Room Gallery in New York.

24"x30" oil, graphite on canvas, signed on reverse by the artist. This contemporary abstract painting by New York artist, Mark Masyga is visually laid out with painted lines of color intertwined and layered on top of each other. The neutral warm grey ground is activated by the multiple layers of paths of blues, beige, cream white, dark greys and near blacks, interspersed with fine curved and bent lines of light green, orange, lavender and rose pink. This is an engaging linear abstract painting with an immense visual depth of field. This painting is featured in a solo show released by the Front Room Gallery in New York, entitled, "Charitable Deceptions".
In this new body of work, the title “Charitable Deceptions,” refers to a passage written by Gabriel García Márquez in which, “…memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.” Mark Masyga ruminates on this concept through his process of addition and subtraction in his compositional constructions. The linear abstract paintings in this exhibition chronicle a passage of time as explored through the artist’s application...
