About the Item

This is a contemporary abstract acrylic on canvas painting in the style of Joan Mitchell or Willem de Kooning, predominantly blue, black, green, Pantone's Color-of-the Year "very peri", and violet with an abstracted bird. It is signed on front and back. All hanging hardware attached, no need for additional framing. Every purchase comes with a free, hardcover copy of the beautiful illustrated new book, "Joseph McAleer: Sixty Years." "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.

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.
