Ulla Pedersen
Cut-Up Canvas I.5

2017

About the Item

Acrylic on canvas. Unframed. Pedersen works with acrylic paint. When painting a composition, she tends toward a limited color palette, often reducing the composition to minimal, hard-edged shapes on solid-colored fields. The harmonies and tensions in the work arise from different relationships: those between the colors, the patterns, and the geometric and organic shapes. Ulla Pedersen is a Danish abstract artist. Her work is a minimal and concrete exploration of color, materiality, form and balance. She lives and works in the Capital Region of Denmark. Pedersen works with acrylic paint on many different surfaces, including canvas, wood, paper, cardboard and plastic. Her process is reductive. When painting a composition, she tends toward a limited color palette, often reducing the composition to minimal, hard-edged shapes on solid-colored fields. When making her assembled pieces, she cuts shapes away then re-combines them into new configurations, using both the positive elements (the shape she has cut out) and the negative elements (the part that was left behind). She uses everything, juxtaposing notions of “form and non-form,” and always leaving room for discovery and surprise. Pedersen is inspired by the potential she sees in formal aesthetic elements. She is particularly fascinated with the circle. Her work can be seen as an investigation into the way relationships emerge and evolve when elements like color, form, shape, angle and pattern are blended, shifted and layered. The harmonies and tensions in the work arise from different relationships: those between the colors, the patterns, and the geometric and organic shapes. She is also interested in artistic materials. As she experiments with different surfaces, mediums and techniques, the artistic process itself becomes the basis of her discovery. Pedersen has exhibited throughout Denmark primarily in curated Group exhibitions and solo exhibitions in companies in the capital area. Her work is included in the collections of the Danish Foreign Ministry Art Association, the Danish Ministry of Integration Art Association, the Copenhagen City Art Foundation, and the Municipal Art Collection of the City of Aarhus.

  • Shadow boxer (A.2) (Abstract Painting)
    By Macyn Bolt
    Located in London, GB
    Shadow boxer (A.2) (Abstract Painting) Acrylic on canvas. Unframed. The Shadow Boxer and skipstep paintings grow out of an interest in the paradox of spatial comprehension found in abstract painting. As with the shadow boxing practice in which the athlete spars with his or her own shadow, Bolt finds that the illusory qualities of abstract composition initiate a similar exercise of perception and expectation. Using...

  • Tightrope (Abstract Painting)
    By Macyn Bolt
    Located in London, GB
    Tightrope (Abstract Painting) Acrylic on canvas. Unframed. Using the geometric vocabulary found in architectural schemata, Bolt tries to create a dynamic tension between foreground and background, center and edge, inside and out. The dual spatial identities that the myriad forms have with one another create a visual riddle. His goal as a painter is not to solve the riddle as much as pose it as a unique perceptual challenge. And it is that challenge that fulfils the experience one has with the painting. Macyn Bolt is an American abstract painter. Using a visual language informed by geometric abstraction, he creates artworks that examine how color and form create shifts in visual perception. He lives and works in Brooklyn, NY, and upstate Pennsylvania. Bolt works with acrylic paint on a variety of surfaces including canvas, wood panel, vinyl and paper. Using scrapers...
