World Art - September 2007

Richard Pousette-Dart

September 13th 2007 03:34
Richard Pousette-Dart
This Abstract Expressionist made his name in the 40s and 50s, championing the avant-garde art scene with his pack of wild Expressionists.

Richard Pousette-Dart was an accomplished artist, and his work is being shown at the Guggenheim museum... he had no formal training, but his works are complicated fusions of colour and form. The New Yorker calls it 'fluorescent stucco', which is an apt description for work that uses paint in three-dimensions.


From his bio:

“I strive to express the spiritual nature of the Universe. Painting for me is a dynamic balance and wholeness of life; it is mysterious and transcending, yet solid and real.”
