About the Item
Night Blooms is a 48 x 40-inch fresco painting on panel. The subject is a still life, with a vase of flowers on a table lit by a luminous source from the right. It is portrayed in the nighttime, with the surrounding space remaining dark. The dramatic lighting casting deep shadows reinforces the vase's presence and volume in the composition. The colors are dark brown and the warm yellow cast by the light. The overall feeling is of a language that interplays the traditional and the contemporary. This painting echoes some of the metaphysical images of Italian artist Giorgio Morandi, which depicted everyday objects out of context and without any apparent relationship amongst each other.
Boston-born Gregory Kitterle creates surrealist paintings with long-lost techniques reminiscent of Pompeian frescoes or seventeen-century masters. His compositions are theatrical assemblages of fragments of reality, often with dramatic lighting with no preconceived narrative content, to engage the viewer in the creative act by allowing autonomy of interpretation. The surface engages the eye with the polished lusciousness of traditional fresco, and drawing guides it through the irregularities of its surface. This contradiction between figurative content and painterly rendition creates a timeless environment, as fragments of our contemporary world emerged in an archaeological find. Kitterle wants the viewer to experience his art almost as a journey, as he states: "The influence for my work stems from my interest in how the eye leads and is lead. The majority of how and what one sees is fragmentary and laced with ambiguity".
