Xanda McCagg

1959
(USA) AMERICAN

Xanda McCagg 是一位美國抽象藝術家,現居並工作於紐約市切爾西區。作為一名受過古典訓練的畫家,她的風格已演變為放棄具象,尋求喚起人類本質。

教育

McCagg 取得波士頓大學藝術教育學士學位,並曾就讀紐約工作室學校及緬因州鹿島的 Haystack Mountain School,曾任教於紐約新學校及布朗克斯博物館。她完成多項獎學金與駐地計畫,包括佛蒙特工作室中心、義大利羅馬美國學院、麻州北亞當斯當代藝術家中心及法國 Marnay Sur Seine 的 C.A.M.A.C。

技法

McCagg 將經驗的痕跡編織成介於抽象與具象暗示之間的畫作。形態與內容、形狀與鮮明色彩之間的對話,是一場不斷演進的交流。
在近期作品中,McCagg 從旅行印象及藝術史中汲取靈感,回顧過去以理解當下。她以十字架為起點,將其作為畫布上的基底結構逐步遮蓋。漸漸地,油彩的層層面紗覆蓋並改變了垂直與水平線,使十字架賦予新意。以「聖像」概念作為她對關係焦點的變奏,McCagg 組合大小不一、拼接而成的畫布,形成如同聖像或圖騰般的視覺整體,作為隱喻。

靈感

Xanda McCagg 的畫作透過層層提煉的人類經驗,推拉我們的感知。她運用線條、色彩與標記的語言,評論塑造我們生活的二元對立,無論是親密層面還是全球層面。觀察周遭世界,探索自然與人類中關係變動的因果,McCagg 創作出訴說記憶、隱喻與感知的構圖。...

這些畫作體現了當代深刻的人類希望需求。連結跨越世紀的藝術普遍性,從一隻手到一隻眼,再到大腦,並由每個人詮釋——這就是理解的深度。


收藏

其作品被多個私人及企業收藏,包括紐約的 Alliance Capital Management、波士頓的 Posternak Blankstein & Lund LLP、紐約的 Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center 以及康乃狄克州新倫敦的 The Lyman Allyn Art Museum。

展覽

Xanda McCagg 曾在美國各地舉辦個展和聯展,並曾於匈牙利布達佩斯及法國巴黎展出。
