Richard MacDonald
Jacques, Atelier, Red

2020

About the Item

A richly flowing cape drapes his shoulders, as he crouches low, eyes looking upward, “Jacques” raises his hands to test the confining walls of his imaginary box. “Jacques” reminds us that many of our limitations are self-imposed boundaries, and we are encouraged to free ourselves from the restrictions imposed by uncertainty and lack of confidence. A richly flowing cape drapes his shoulders, as he crouches low, eyes looking upward, “Jacques” raises his hands to test the confining walls of his imaginary box. “Jacques” reminds us that many of our limitations are self-imposed boundaries, and we are encouraged to free ourselves from the restrictions imposed by uncertainty and lack of confidence. In 2014 and 2015, Richard MacDonald focused intently on the minerals and pigments of his patina process - specifically on the color red. Shortly thereafter, the artist revealed his discoveries in a new exhibition entitled “Richard MacDonald: Red.” The exhibition, which highlights MacDonald's creative immersion into the hue, the emotion, and narrative of color, represents a profound new direction in the artist's work. Artist initials in bronze.
