James Aponovich
Peonies in a Japanese Vase

2013

About the Item

Aponovich paints complex still life compositions, with a strong undercurrent of surrealism pervading the work. His exquisite paintings are distinguished by their geometry, proportion, composition and light filled atmosphere. Referencing 17th Century Dutch and Flemish still life painters, masters of the Renaissance, and the surreal compositional components of mid 20th century painters, Aponovich's paintings are technically astounding idealizations of reality. James has a lengthy and illustrious exhibition history. His paintings and drawings are represented in museum collections across the country including: the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; the New Britain Museum of American Art; the Art Institute of Chicago; The Currier Museum of Art; the Arkansas Art Institute; the Portland Museum of Art, among others. Aponovich lives in New Hampshire, where he was bestowed the honorary designation as the State of New Hampshire's Artist Laureate.

  • Delacroix's Window
    Located in Westport, CT
    "My life as a painter began in the late 1950s when abstraction was “The only game in town”. I followed and progressed through gesture, organic and finally, geometric non-objective painting. The radical move for me was to discover that the real world of landscape lurked behind all that past work. My childhood in the mountains of Pennsylvania pervaded my “way of seeing” and I wanted to investigate and celebrate the infinite variety of tone, color and composition that I found around me. Sky, the structure of trees, mist and water appeared to fill a hunger to look again and again. There was mystery and danger lurking behind the beauty, and my aim was to try to avoid the cliché and explore the infinite structure of the visual landscape. Now I use my camera as a sketchbook and search for images that seem to offer odd structure and “mystery”. I shoot multiple points of view, cull, crop, and mostly discard. The surviving photographs become the catalyst for the paintings and the process is always a mediation between memory and the small image pinned to my easel...
