Robert Motherwell: The Art of Collage at Paul Kasmin Gallery

Please subscribe to our channel and read the article on: ARTEFUSE.COM On a cool Saturday morning, bright with the smell of spring, the gallery scene in Chelsea was already bustling before eleven in the morning. Young neighborhood parents with children in tow, seasoned collectors, tourists, and artists alike all mingled in and out of the galleries, mostly on side streets, between 10th and 11th Avenue in the 20s. My stops included the Gagosian Gallery and the Mike Weiss Gallery. First was the Robert Motherwell: The Art of Collage installation at the Paul Kasmin Gallery, which was of notable interest. While the lighting in the gallery itself was quite poor, something that would have undoubtedly dismayed Motherwell, whose work was inspired by the bright openness and light of California, the art nevertheless breathed a light of its own. Motherwell’s collages are all quite simple with few colors. The colors themselves are each rich and evocative. While simple, many of the collages suggest a story or a reference. “Country Life No. 1” features a bright blue, again most likely inspired by his California youth, but also reminiscent of a Matisse blue. The top part of the collage is blue, the bottom brown. The blue again appears as a rectangle in the brown with an envelope mirroring it on the blue. It looks like a piece of mail going into a mailbox or a letter being opened by the artist on a dirt road against a clear blue sky. The simplicity welcomes interpretation while the objects remain familiar.
