Davine Antional Green

The Substance of Abstraction
February 2 - February 23, 2010 Reception: Thursday February 4, 2010 6-8 PM

Press Release

It is from a deep well of subtle spiritual, mind and body understanding that the works of Davine-Antional Green come. Each piece is approached individually, the style adapting fluidly to the needs and expressions of the artist. Working in the manner of the Abstract Expressionists, Green employs wide sweeping brushstrokes that race through his canvases. Starting with a plain ground, the marks are repeatedly layered and appear to float just above the painting’s surface creating a tremendous feeling of depth. Green’s colors are intense, often contrasting hues. In some works these blend seemingly into oblivion, in others they form meandering barriers that bisect the canvas with their distinct forms. The result is a vital energy that radiates from the paintings, connecting directly with the viewer.

 

Davine-Antional Green has been involved in art and wellbeing for over twenty-seven years, but has dedicated himself to art, becoming a serious abstract artist.


Artist Statement

The road to expressionism started for me by exploring the works of the Abstract Expressionists who expressed their inner being. Pollack, Rothko, de Kooning, Kline, Mitchell; the works were big, bold and real. From there I discovered the “gateway” into the realm of Expressionism. Worlds you can’t see, and that are not representational or figurative. I’m privileged to create unique, bold, “big” and non-objective forms of abstraction. What I look to accomplish is to bring about the return of Expressionism from the inside of the self. It is to be holistic... regardless of how you want to phrase it — you'll be made to think, feel and there will be no escaping the work... it stands out right there in front of your face.
