quite beautiful, serene, yet concise. fluid, elemental. rhythm.
\nlots of . . rhyming !!<\/p>\n

as in: colorfield rhyming, compositional dynamic. tension. gesture. definition, feeling.<\/p>\n

interestingly, this piece by BEN BERLOW appears to be painted on ‘found’ paper, maybe a large brown paper grocery shopping bag ?
\nDAN ASHER and SIMON CERIGO both worked on found, easily available . . newspaper sheets, of actual media printed newspaper . . specifically, the New York Times.
\nthis is a way more ‘durable’ selection.
\nthough later on, Dan did turn to some very expensive artists’ papers, often in a colored tint, whereas Simon stuck with the newspaper format, as he was always interested in the background news – the story, and its accompanying image(s) . . which would then become a starting point for his work.<\/p>\n

Dan was very internal in his work, whereas Simon was always looking outside for what was going on . . around him. Simon’s ‘newspaper’ pieces are somewhat fragile, but if you spray them with archival ‘PAPER SAVER’ – that does stabilize them, and they will not turn yellow or brittle over time.
\nthe process does not affect the paper in anyway, except to deacidify it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
