Jaqueline Cedar "Paintings"
A.M. Richard Fine Art
This event has ended.
The artist’s compositions are dynamic, colorful and rich in perceptive complexities. Well versed in a dense vocabulary of figural movement, Ms. Cedar succeeds in poetically translating human drama and staging a vast scale of emotions. A profound and uncommon analytical narrative runs through Ms. Cedar’s paintings. Culled from the density of life’s stages, bodies stand, float, crouch, lean, crawl, rest and fall. Are these natural steps or forced poses of contortions? Are the figures at pain or play? Are the enacted gestures of compassion or aggression? there lies the duplicitous conflicts of Ms. Cedar’s unsettling subjects. Space is both condensed and fragmented, pulling, pushing and breaking into new perspectives of prismatic light. Ms. Cedar has assimilated conventional axioms of early 20th century isms-Cubism, Futurism, Surrealism, Fauvism-and conceived a rich and vivacious pictorial language to call her own.
