ARTIST STORIES | INSPIRE & EMPOWER Abstract Expressionism By Zoey Frank 22 April 2022 www.magzoid.com
“I’m interested in bringing the grandeur and gravitas of Renaissance and Baroque compositions to the mundane, suburban scenes of domestic life,” says Zoey Frank - Exclusive to Magzoid Zoey Frank is an artist based in Boulder, Colorado who received her MFA in painting from Laguna College of Art and Design in Laguna Beach, California after studying for four years with Juliette Aristides in the Classical Atelier at Gage Academy of Art in Seattle, Washington. From early frescos and basrelief sculptures to abstract expressionism, she has been increasingly interested in paints that reinforce the rigidity of the surface. She has started breaking up her images using abstract color patterns and planes to alternately expand and compress the illusion of depth in the images, drawing the spectator back to the surface level. Her fascination lies in how diverse techniques, ranging from realism to abstraction to sculpture, may Zoey has been working on a series of summer paintings, which she has arranged in the backyard, inside her house, and at the pool. Families and friends are crammed together in the paintings interspersed with the vivid colors. coexist and enrich one another as our gaze wanders from one to the next. She's particularly interested in bringing the grandeur and seriousness of Renaissance and Baroque compositions to the everyday suburban scenes; a seventy-year-old woman's birthday party, a family picnic on the grass. Focusing on the commonplace allows her to experiment with the painting's more formal elements, such as the angles of repetitive gestures, the arrangement of light and dark shapes, and the color pathways. The bright plastics offer another compositional tool to move our gaze across the canvas. For several years now, Zoey has been working on a series of summer paintings, which she has arranged in the backyard, inside her house, and at the pool. Families and friends are crammed together in the paintings interspersed with the vivid colors of plastic inflated toys and sun hats. Three Elizabeth Greenshields fellowships and the Avigdor Arikha Memorial International Residency Scholarship are among the distinctions and awards she has earned. Her work has been shown in galleries across the US and Europe. - feature@magzoid.com www.magzoid.com April 2022 23
