Gina Werfel

1951
(USA) AMERICAN

Gina Werfel 是一位美国抽象画家,她的作品运用鲜艳的色彩、抒情的手势和复杂的构图结构来探索视觉空间中的和谐。她在长岛长大,目前居住并在加利福尼亚州萨克拉门托附近工作,担任加利福尼亚大学戴维斯分校的艺术教授。

教育

Werfel 在纽约克林顿的柯克兰学院(现为汉密尔顿学院的一部分)获得了文学学士学位,并在纽约工作室学校完成了研究生课程。随后,她在纽约的哥伦比亚大学获得了美术硕士学位。她还获得了多项著名的奖学金和资助,并在世界各地的重要学校和机构担任艺术教授、客座大学讲师和驻校艺术家,拥有卓越的职业生涯。

技术

Werfel 使用油画、丙烯和混合媒介在画布上创作。她的背景是风景画,这帮助她培养了对光线、色彩关系和构图和谐的敏锐眼光。当她过渡到抽象艺术时,她增强了利用这些敏感性在图像空间中传达情感和氛围状态的能力。在她的抽象画作中,她运用表现性、抒情的手势,创造出运动和能量的爆发。她的色彩选择创造出从柔和宁静到生动电力的多种色调。除了传统的刷子技法外,她还结合了喷漆和模板等媒介,构建出层次丰富、复杂且富有表现力的作品。

灵感

Werfel 在世界各地学习和教授。她从自己接触到的各种风景中找到了灵感:例如,加利福尼亚北部的山丘与光线之间的相互作用,以及法国布列塔尼的质感和色彩。她对日常经历如何影响她的画作感兴趣。她可能在一天的早些时候因一个自发的动作而获得灵感,然后在稍后的时间里受到她工作室窗外景色的引导。最终,她的作品并不指向任何一个特定的事物。它们是对光、透明度和空间中色彩特质的探讨。

艺术家声明

“就像音乐中的复调,Werfel的作品由多个独立的“声音”或来源的纹理组成。她叠加多个元素,创造出绘画的宇宙;嵌入的手势遗迹暗示着记忆的片段,透视她的工作室或窗外的景象。Werfel 创作的作品回响着她在户外绘画时所吸引的风景的空间复杂性——起伏的山丘或水下的倒影。但现在,片段在流动的、朦胧的空间中漂浮。”

展览

Werfel 在美国的个人和群展中展出广泛,最近在法国巴黎的美国大学和纽约市的王子街画廊举办了个人展览。
