About the Item

David Allan Peters Untitled #30, 2021 Acrylic on panel 48 x 36 inches 121.9 x 91.4 cm Signed, dated and titled: "David Allan Peters 2021 #30 (verso)" -- Rooted in the history of early West Coast, abstraction Peters’s brilliantly kaleidoscopic works explore color, geometry, intuition, and chance. The artist resists the concept of the “perfect painting” and instead resolves this painterly struggle with his own unique form of creation and elimination. With an interest in pulling things apart and putting them back together, Peters alters his canvases with palette knives and trowels – eliminating the use of paintbrushes as a primary tool for paint application. The application of acrylic paint, chosen for its intense saturation of color, pushes the boundaries of the medium as well as traditional practices of painting. The base layers incorporate thick abstract compositions, one buried on top of another, with colors spewing from the surface strata leading to the liberation of a more calculated linear depth than seen in previous paintings. “This series of work was made throughout 2021 and winter 2022 and represents my interpretations from these three genres of painting: hard-edge, abstract expressionism and landscape,” the artist states. The countless layers of paint have dried, so the artist uses a blade to carefully slice off the globs of excess paint that have accrued around the edges of the panel. Forming the way icicles do, drip by drip, this bulky crust is the residue of each layer of paint extending slightly further than the last, even wrapping around the previous layer ever so slightly. With this bulk removed, the edges of the painting are exposed with a clean slice, revealing the stratified layers of color sitting atop the panel for the first time.

Infolded Ridgeling
By James Siena
Located in New York, NY
James Siena Infolded Ridgeling, 2020 Charcoal and acrylic on linen 36 x 48 inches 91.4 x 121.9 cm Signed, titled and dated (verso) -- James Siena is celebrated for his inimitable process of creating intricate abstractions, driven by a practice of self-imposed rules termed visual algorithms. The artist preemptively determines his marks and actions and repeats them procedurally as his works result in intensely concentrated, vibrantly colored, freehand compositions. His oeuvre often references diagrams, complex puzzles, labyrinths, and mapping, resulting in inward meditations that actively engage traditions of pattern and mark-making in an ongoing exploration of scale, materiality, and interaction of color. Maneuvering across a diverse range of mediums, including painting, sculpture, drawing, lithography, etching and woodcuts, his work has placed him firmly within the canon of contemporary American art...
