Marlene Tseng Yu "Forces of Nature"
Crossing Art
This event has ended.
Forces of Nature presents a retrospect of work dating back to some of Tseng Yu's first explorations from 1966 to the new compositions of 2008. Consuming the exhibition space, and everyone who stands in front of it, is the arrival of the painting Water - One of Four Elements of Life. Standing 8 feet tall and spanning 32 feet wide, this magnificent painting has traveled from the Las Vegas Art Museum and the National Gallery in Prague to occupy the walls of Crossing Art Gallery in New York. Also on view are a wide range of works on paper and smaller
paintings that seamlessly unfold her more intimate meditations on nature. Tseng Yu fearlessly pushes the boundaries of landscape painting in both the western and eastern stylistic traditions. Her unique technical combinations of landscape and abstractions are enhanced by her dynamic relationship with the natural world.
