PRESENT EXHIBITION “CLOSE YOUR EYES AND THINK OF THERE”AZURE ARTS VIRTUALLY ON ARTSY / APRIL 4, 2022
Azureartsnyc presents this virtual show on Artsy. This is one painting included in the show.
PRESS RELEASE:
Using works created from oil painting to collage to paper sculpture, Azure Arts presents "Close Your Eyes and Think of There" wherein we explore what it means to “see.” What we choose to see, either consciously or subconsciously, is arguably a choice based on experience, memory and innate senses, as well as our current mental and emotional condition that are unique to each individual. In the words of the late Robert Hughes, renowned art historian and critic, “What realism comes down to is choice”. In Close Your Eyes and Think of There, "there" is wherever eye–and the mind– chooses to go based upon these conditions. Each viewer thus holds infinite perceptions into the multitude of Krinsley's and Crimmins' abstract forms and vibrant colors in their works.
Not only has Maureen R. Krinsley and Jaynie Crimmins created artwork born out of their personal experiences - past and present– life philosophies, but the viewer can never truly know which of those elements have coalesced to form what it is before them. Similarly, each and every viewer can see only what they choose to see. And in this way, each artwork has infinite existences.
Azure Arts is an online and pop-up gallery located in NYC founded by Elizabeth Chatham, and is dedicated to showcasing the work of artists who help shape New York City. We work with artists local to NYC and clients at all stages to integrate fine, thought-provoking and narrative-based contemporary art, and craftsmanship into their lives. In doing so, Azure Arts works to facilitate meaningful and lasting relationships between artist and collector.
Maureen R. Krinsley
Trained as a painter, Maureen R. Krinsley combines the media of acrylic paint, photography, pastels and encaustic wax. Her abstract landscapes have been created to view singly, or in complementary groupings of two, three or four, based on their interrelations of form and color and are built on the associations of memory and experience
She received her undergraduate degree from Skidmore College in Art and her Master’s degree from Pratt Institute. She has exhibited nationally and has been on the Board of Directors of The Silvermine Guild of Artists and The New York Society of Woman Artist, and has been juried into shows and received numerous awards from esteemed leaders in the art world such as: The Emmerich Gallery, Paula Cooper Gallery, The Museum of Modern Art, The Aldrich Museum Curator of 20th Century Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lisa Messenger.
