Jeffrey Kurland
"THIN ICE", Abstract Painting, Diptych, Teal, Violet, Flower, Crystalline Frost

2020

About the Item

The large abstract painting "THIN ICE" by Jeffrey Kurland is a diptych – acrylic paint on two canvases each measuring 48" tall by 52" wide – together measuring 96" tall by 52" wide. THIN ICE is new work from the long hot summer of 2020. Often employing paints and pigments from surprising sources (automotive manufacturers, industrial finishers), here specifically the artist uses teal and violet to develop a crystalline yet floral structure on the canvas. Jeffrey has developed his own methods and techniques to achieve this structure. He doesn't use brushes but pours and directs the paint using a variety of methods. Kurland embraces spontaneity and intuition – there are no preparatory sketches. In this manner he pursues as much as captures the painting. Innovating technically, building structure on the canvas and pushing color abstraction forward on his own terms – bending, breaking, flowing and channeling color. Broad gesture and active, tactile surfaces emerge from the canvas through his experimental process and approach to materials, application and composition. Jeffrey Kurland received his BFA in Painting and Printmaking from the University of Michigan, and an MFA in Painting from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Michigan. He’s been living and working in New York City since 1976, developing his art practice which includes painting, drawing, collage, monoprints, and book arts.
