Macyn Bolt

1954
(USA) AMERICAN

Macyn Bolt 是一位美国抽象画家。通过几何抽象所启发的视觉语言,他创作的艺术作品探讨了颜色和形状如何在视觉感知中产生变化。 他在纽约布鲁克林和宾夕法尼亚州的上州生活和工作。

教育

Bolt 于1979年毕业于位于密歇根州大急流城的卡尔文学院,获得美术学士学位,并于1981年获得雪城大学的美术硕士学位。

技术

Bolt 使用丙烯颜料在多种表面上创作,包括画布、木板、乙烯和纸张。通过使用刮刀和调色刀,他逐层叠加颜料,创造出既光滑又手工制作的表面。他常常努力实现对比度的增强,探索绘画与平面、松散与不透明之间的关系。这种对比在颜色之间的关系中得到了进一步的探索。他的创作过程反映了他在作品中寻求的大胆与细腻之间的平衡。

规模也是他作品中一个重要的方面。他的小型作品,起始于约16 x 15英寸,为观众提供了亲密互动的机会。他的大型作品,尺寸可达84 x 180英寸,将观众包围在一个沉思的美学空间中。尺寸的差异导致了一系列感知体验,这对作品至关重要。

灵感

Bolt 的灵感来源于可以通过空间关系唤起的 "视觉谜题",以及色彩与形状之间的相互作用。他的简约单色作品考察了视觉感知中戏剧性和细微的变化。他对他所称的 "抽象绘画空间中独特的反射和镜像特性" 感兴趣。他的作品邀请观众进入一种沉思的体验,随着他们与具体与幻影空间的波动极性互动。

相关引言

画廊经营者和策展人哈里·西蒙(Harry Simon),新泽西州莫里斯敦西蒙画廊的老板,在2016年写到了博尔特(Bolt)的作品,称:

这些画作代表了Bolt在过去三年中所采用的新视觉基础,利用对称分割的构图来提出开放和封闭的形式、交错的形状和幻觉空间。通过这样做,他确认了空间理解的复杂性和常常矛盾的本质。
