Andrew Masullo
Nicelle Beauchene Gallery presents its second solo exhibition with Andrew Masullo, featuring paintings made during the past decade.
Andrew Masullo鈥檚 oil on canvas paintings explore the relationship between color and form. Nonobjective and hard-edge in style, each work comprises an often restrained palette of tube-fresh color: yellow, blue, red, black, and white are frequent players. The flat shapes they form are bulbous and fluid in some paintings, in others more exacting. These compositions are improvisational, and their often years-long process of becoming renders themselves apparent in each painting鈥檚 visible crust of paint.
Masullo titles each of his paintings serially鈥�5551 (2012-13), 6417 (2015), and 7070 (2017-21), for example鈥攁 matter of fact system the artist has used since 1978. Finding his work neither 鈥渦ntitled鈥� nor ascribable of 鈥渨ord-ideas,鈥� the artist leaves ample room for each painting to speak for itself, no gimmicks or agenda in sight.
