The Blur

The blur is as close as the artist has ever come to a stylistic signature, and it recurs here in seascapes, landscapes, and street scenes. The artist picks up a squeegee and drags it along successive layers of paint, to produce stammering, arrhythmic compositions. The successive building up and wiping away of pigment results in “abstract pictures,” as most are dryly titled, whose hidden depths and lost pasts remain stubbornly inaccessible.
The artist’s abstractions are increasingly formulaic, made with a squeegee that pushes across the surface in straight paths the way his brush did in “unpainting” images. They constantly reveal new accidents of color and shape but also cover up and hide.
