Through her experimental approach to painting and process, Marcelyn McNeil challenges traditional assumptions about abstraction to produce works that remind us of the lyrical power of painting in an ever-challenging contemporary moment. The tension in her work enables the chance to engage slowly with the macro-view of the composition and the micro-view of the palimpsest layers. Spare and deliberate forms celebrate the evocative power of color interfolded with soft pours to invite contemplation. Each thin layer on the raw canvas becoming a luminous veil to deeply sensuous effect.
Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through May 14.
