About the Item
This beautiful pink minimalist sculptural work explores the evocative power monochrome color. Originally working as a painter, Thompson focused on Minimalism. In his sculptural work, monochrome serves as format for color exploration.
The actual medium is urethane on polyurethane block.
Thompson’s current three dimensional work relys on the objectness of painting. The forms are hand-carved from dense polyurethane blocks (HDU) and then spray-coated with roughly twenty layers of automotive primer, custom-mixed color, and clear acrylic urethane. They are typically wall mounted and in some cases, grouped in constellations. All of the sculptural work is executed in the artist’s studio and done without the aid of design software or industrial cutting machines
He studied painting and sculpture at Carnegie Mellon University.
His works are in important museum, public and private collections worldwide, including: The Abbey Group; BankBoston; Butler Institute of American Art; DeCordova Museum; Fogg Art Museum; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; New York Public Library; Perkin Elmer and Rose Art Museum.

Blue Minimalist Abstract Color Field Painting on Panels (C22-8)
By Ginny Fox
Located in Hudson, NY
Nature-Inspired Minimalist Abstract Color Field painting on three wood panels in shades of vibrant blue.
Acrylic on 3 panels, Each panel is 24 x 18 x 2 inches
Panels can be oriented or stacked horizontally or vertically, recommended spacing between panels is 1-2 inches
Overall measurement for horizontal install with 1 inch spacing: 24 x 56 x 2 inches
We are amazed by this artist's ability to achieve multiple flawless layers of acrylic paint, wiping it on and off with cotton cloth, to create a subtle yet distinctive woven texture on a smooth surface. The artist's work is inspired by patterns found in nature such as tree rings, rock lines, ethereal horizons, or water ripples. It appears as though a light source is originating behind the panel, glowing softly in a vibrant blue palette. This unique surface spreads all the way to the very edge of each panel. The 2 inch deep sides are cleanly painted white for a seamless finish. These panels hang flush to the wall by resting on two nails on either side of the panel, and can be arranged in any number of ways, highlighting the work's sculptural element.
Artist's Statement:
My paintings merge the detailed textures and colors found in the natural world with the linear and geometric patterns visible in industrial and architectural structures. The interplay of these elements drives the work and provides a platform for constant change and narrative. By simultaneously layering and removing paint with rags instead of brushes, my hand is directly involved with the process. Each piece contains multiple panels that evoke a nuanced and evolving universe.
Ginny Fox builds up each non-representational piece with overlapping streaks of paint that frequently span two or three panels. Working with rags instead of brushes, Fox’s hand moves along parallel paths, emergent colors cascading gently towards the edges of the composition's plane. There’s something vaporous to the outer layers of the work, the interwoven strands of color offering glimpses at the painting’s earthy base and hinting at the artist’s gradual process. Having received her education from New York University in the 1970s, Fox has since exhibited throughout the United States, especially in New York City and the northeastern U.S.
