Abstract Impressionist Susan Marx Exhibits Paintings

 

Abstract Impressionist Susan Marx Exhibits Paintings at

 Agora Gallery, 530 West 25 Street, New York, NY, May 16 – June 5, 2014

 

Chelsea’s Agora Gallery is set to feature the work of artist Susan Marx.

The exhibition begins on May 16 and runs until June 5, Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm, with an opening reception on Thursday evening May 22 from 6 to 8 pm.  For more information: (212) 226-4151.

Marx's modern abstract impressionist paintings combine formal elements with spontaneous, colorful emotive responsiveness, resulting in paintings as dynamic as they are compelling. 

She paints outside, en plein air, with her feet barefoot on the grass, allowing her to truly experience the landscape and capture what she sees and feels on canvas.   Marx doesn’t paint flowers to paint flowers.  She paints flowers to paint color.  

Marx inhales nature as she paints, and then exhales her sensations in a truly impassioned creation of color that epitomizes the moment. Her goal is to capture the essence of a painting, the color and the emotion, and leave the rest to the viewer’s imagination, to bring him into the painting. She paints nature but is not limited by it. Above all, Marx has been inspired by the Impressionist paintings of Claude Monet. 

"They call me Mme. Monet in jest, but they are right," Marx said. "I have inherited the soul of Monet.”  

She has painted on Monet’s bridge, but has gone beyond, painting impassioned colorful canvases that are in a style all her own, according to a release from the gallery. 

Exhibited widely throughout the United States, Marx’s work can be found in private collections in the United States and abroad. 

Marx lives in Orange, New Jersey. The paintings being shown were painted in Montclair, New Jersey.

However, if a center misses plurality or a center, an axis of coordinates will become unstable. It will continue becoming fluid if the sense of values for which the world should depend is lost. Continuation and division. It becomes quick and becomes late. Concealment and exposure. It reclaims and breaks down. It moves and stops. It prepares and breaks. It decides in puzzlement. It will dissolve, if built. The body will be divided, will bury and float and will become unstable. The story does not begin yet. And starting may be impossible. A meaning is visited from outside. 「重力都市」について 重力は、その性質から下方に、あるいは中心に向かう。 しかし、中心が複数化、あるいは中心を見失ってしまうと、座標軸は揺らぎ。 世界が拠り所なく、混沌と流動化し続ける。 連続し分断される。 速く遅く。 隠蔽されて露出する。 開墾し崩される。 動いては留まる。 整えられ壊される。 戸惑いつつ決断される。 構築しては溶解する。 身体は分断され、埋没し、浮遊し不安定化する。 物語は、未だに始まっていない。 そして、けっして始められることはないだろう 意味は外部から訪れるだろう。               #fineartmagazine

For the past few weeks, Frieze New York’s tent has been going up on Randall’s Island. It finally opens to VIPs on Thursday. But Frieze is not alone in the art-fair game this week. Quite a few other art events will be swinging open their doors. Below, a quick guide to the action.

FRIEZE NEW YORK: MAY 9–12
Frieze New York returns again to Randall’s Island for the fair’s third installment, this year with more than 190 exhibitors. If walking or biking is your preferred mode of transport, the 103rd Street Foot Bridge is free and accessible at the East River Esplanade at 103rd Street and FDR Drive. If walking seems cumbersome, the Frieze ferry runs every 20–30 minutes from 10 a.m. until 30 minutes after the fair closes, and departs from the 35th Street Ferry Dock on the East River. (Tickets must be purchased in advance for $19.) As an alternative, the Frieze bus service runs from outside the Guggenheim Museum on 5th Avenue between East 88th and 89th Streets approximately every 10 minutes during fair hours, and costs $7 per round trip. (Also only available in advance.)
May 8–11, 11 a.m.–7 p.m. (May 8 is by invitation); May 12, 11 a.m.–6 p.m. One day: $43, students: $27, one day and catalogue: $76.
