"Part" Medium Sized Abstraction of Black, Pink, Teal, Read, Gray, and White"
2019

About the Item

"Part," Small Abstraction of Black, Pink, Teal, Read, Gray, and White, Colored Pencil and Flashe on Canvas, 40 x 32 Inches This painting has a very sophisticated sensibility in that it is purely abstract and consists of multiple layers of underpainting and glazing, however the mark making was inspired by the artist's stay in Rome - where her then 10 year old son became addicted to Italian comic books -which adds another whimsical Pop dimension. Associations can also be made with Alexander Calder's paintings, sculptures and works on paper, and Asian art. Also available by the artist are smaller canvases (40 x 32 inches and 14 x 11 inches) and a series of paintings on paper and monoprints (30 x 22 inches). Margo Margolis lives and works in New York. She recently retired as Chairman of the Tyler School of Art's (Philadelphia) Department of Painting. Margolis’ continuing commitment to abstraction is as fresh and invigorating as it was in the early 1970s when she began exhibiting with the Brooke Alexander Gallery in New York where she had several shows. In addition her work has been exhibited throughout the country at numerous galleries and institutions including The Pennsylvania Academy of Art, The Renaissance Society, The Munson-Williams Proctor Institute and Halls Walls, among others. In reviewing the artist’s 1993 exhibition in the Beth Urdang gallery for the 'Boston Globe,' Nancy Stapen stated: “…eccentric, quasi-geometric forms and initial impression of simplicity belie this artist’s highly sophisticated grasp of paintings. These are multi- layered works concerned with the discipline’s core issues – transluscency and opacity, flatness and illusioinism, line and form, figure and ground, pattern and surface, structure and weightless pictorial space… these paintings may be analyzed up to a point. In the end, their process remains mysterious. Their appeal lies in their engagement with an inventive form language intrinsic to painting, as well as in their deft synthesis of quietude and quirkiness.” June 3, 1993 Current Chief Art Critic for the 'Boston Globe, ' Cate, McQuaid, wrote of Margolis’ 2017 exhibition in the gallery: “Her marks grab at you as insistently as a toddler demanding attention. They’re like a language made purely of punctuation, rhythmic and emphatic, let out of the duty of modifying sentences, freed at last to express itself alone.” January 6, 2017 Margo Margolis’ works are included in numerous public collections including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, Chase Manhattan Bank, Amerata-Hess Corporation, General Mills, Best Products, IBM, Estee Lauder, Miami-Dade College, Chemical Bank, and Wellington Management. She is the recipient of many awards including 2 grants from The National Endowment for the Arts, a New York State Council on the Arts Grant, and Yaddo and MacDowell Residency Grants. Margolis received a BS degree from Skidmore College and an MFA from Indiana University. She lives and works in New York. Statement by Margo Margolis: "While text and image combine to tell the story, it is the drawing around the narrative, the space between text and image that I find compelling. In my work, it is the space between, on the periphery, in the margins that has become the foreground. It is the charged environment that has become the subject. Equally significant and transformative have been innovations in process that have evolved. Discrete marks are de-contextualized, reassembled and photocopied. They are further manipulated by exaggerations in scale, repetition and excessive layering. I have introduced 'printerly' processes (carbon tracking and stencils) that combine with marks that are hand-drawn, hand-painted. These are layered over and under transparent veils of paint. The incorporation of printing methods has been critical both formally and conceptually. These processes underline the fact that this is a system based on a 'ready-made' language. They create an identity distinctly different from action painting, gestural painting or any notion that the artists' stroke is assumed to reveal his/her psyche. These are distanced marks and frozen gestures. In combination with what is handmade, they reveal an alternate translation. Importantly, these processes, in allowing direct reproduction point to the semantic mutability of the language. However, most important is the process of building, excessive layering, and the continual dissolution and re-materialization of form. The paintings have a physicality and material presence that affirms the medium and is in contrast to their graphic impact." MARGO MARGOLIS EDUCATION B.S.
