Bruce Murphy
An Experience of Feeling (Colorful and Metallic Gestural Abstract Painting)

2016

About the Item

24 x 36 x 3 inches enamel paint and metallic powders on archival paper mounted on panel Thin profile gold metal recessed frame This is a colorful abstract painting with gold magenta and blue, metallic powders. The work is a horizontal abstract painting with a gold tinted frame, paper mounted on panel with no glass. About the work: Texas native Bruce Murphy will exhibit a new series of paintings using his preferred materials of enamel paint and various metallic powders. Over the years, we have seen Murphy’s abstract color compositions take on characteristics of landscapes where horizon lines distinctly separate land from sky in minimalist blocks of color. In the new work, Murphy introduces a grid work of straight, measured lines that pierce through the expansive color schemes with the implied specificity of an Agnes Martin. Diaphanous clouds of color are layered within veils of gold and silver metallic powders. A true master of this medium, the artist’s deft application results in a suavely knitted fabric of shimmering light that not only reflects but also emits from, through and behind the nebula of color. Murphy invents a universe on a two dimensional plane where his marks and incisions become points in the cosmos. Bruce Murphy obtained a BFA in painting from the Parson’s School of Design in New York City. After a long career in graphic design, he now lives in Rhinecliff, NY and devotes himself full-time to his art.
