Alexandra Rozenman
"We Have to Cross this Bridge Together", landscape, blues, greens, oil painting

2010

About the Item

"We have to cross this bridge together" by Alexandra Rozenman is a painterly and playful oil painting on linen 60 x 64 x 2.5 inches. This vast abstracted landscape reminds us of how many beautiful places there are on this planet. It is divided into two sections, but has no horizon line; we just feel it because of light, color, and texture. It is from Rozenman's series of 2010 called "Landscapes without Horizons." We think about a landscape right away because of the color palette, tree trunks and a staircase that invites us in. The beautiful grey color that reflects blues, greens, blacks, and purple walks us in helping us hear the river moving. Two animals in blues and greens, as if they just came from the Kandinsky painting, look at us sideways. The non-distinctive shape of a staircase, a chair, and a few oval windows help us to walk along them to experience love, commitment, and understanding that two creatures need between each other to overcome any obstacles in life or dream together. This painting is oil on linen, initialed on the front and signed, titled and dated on the reverse. Thick 2.5 inches stretcher is painted with grays on the sides. Alexandra Rozenman immigrated to America from the Soviet Union in 1989. Russian, European and American myths of national destiny and private identity take on a utopian dimension as she absorbs and expresses the psychology of otherness as fundamental aspects of her own identity. She wants her art to be like a well-worn military wool blanket that gives you warmth, love, and history. The artist states. Whatever degree of abstraction defines my thinking and visual self-identification it has all to do with the search for my own image in a great existential sea of sweeping change. Rozenman is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.

  • "Redon's Spirit", landscape, sky, blue, white, grey, green, oil painting
    By Alexandra Rozenman
    Located in Natick, MA
    Alexandra Rozenman’s “Redon’s Spirit” is a 36 x 24 x 2.5 oil painting on canvas. It is a part of her on-going series called “Beasts and Beauties”. Big and heavy sky filled with white and grey clouds, white moon and a flock of flying away birds fills two thirds of the painting creating a feeling of weight, time and an open space. There is a magic divider under it – something that is part umbrella, part inside-out tent, and part ships sails. It keeps us from something bad and powerful like a Devil’s Eye...

  • "One-Way Ticket to Paris", landscape, abstract, blues, browns, oil painting
    By Alexandra Rozenman
    Located in Natick, MA
    Alexandra Rozenman’s “One-way to Paris” 16 x 20 x 2.5 oil on canvas painting is a part of her landscape series where she plays with reality and abstraction inside the familiar place. The painting is a well thought- through abstract painting that symbolizes both departure and arrival. The dramatic combination of blues and beautiful browns in geometrical interposition of forms gives us a feeling of going away, departure, speed, light, and serendipity filled with expectations and purifying beauty. The light of dreamy suns above the horizon is suddenly deep green and energizes and calms the senses at the same time. We wonder thinking about the future, a highway that magically finds a way to transform into one lonely Paris street light...
