Steven Alexander Paintings
American
Steven Alexander is an American artist who makes abstract paintings characterized by luminous color, sensuous surfaces and iconic configurations. His works are composed as sensate visual events that embody potential states of being. They invite meditative encounters with the viewer's perception and imagination. Born in 1953 in West Texas, Alexander spent his early years observing the vast skies and flat expanses of the southwest plains. He moved to New York in 1975, completing an MFA in painting at Columbia University, where he studied with Richard Pousette-Dart and Dore Ashton. A member of the American Abstract Artists group in New York, he has been awarded grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation and the Belin Foundation, a studio residency at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center and numerous public commissions. His work has been widely exhibited and collected throughout the United States and abroad. Alexander has been a visiting artist at Parsons School for Design and Bowdoin College, artist-in-residence at Studio Art Centers International in Florence, Italy, and is currently a Professor of Visual Arts at Marywood University. He maintains a home and studio in the hills of eastern Pennsylvania.

Artist Biography: Steven Alexander is an American artist who makes abstract paintings characterized by luminous color, sensuous surfaces, and iconic configurations. His works are composed as sensate visual events that embody potential states of being. They present uncomplicated color situations that mirror the viewer, alluding to rhythms, tensions, and dualities of the body and the psyche, and inviting meditative encounters with one's perception and imagination.

Inland Crossing 35
By Hyunmee Lee
Located in Salt Lake City, UT
The gestural paintings of Hyunmee Lee are sumptuously minimal. Rich forms advance from buttery canvases like an abstract garden. Gauzy veils of paint hover like soft air against the ebony weight of matter. Light peeks through translucent shapes like sunlight illuminating soft mist. Texture swirls and echoes across the canvas as if carved by waves or eroded by the wind. The viewer, invited into a realm of contemplation and meditation, is surprised to look away and see the physical world existing in only three dimensions. But perhaps that is precisely the experience the artist would like the viewer to have.
