Oh wow, I just fell in love with Michael Cina’s work. Will be purchasing this print soon. It reminds me so much of Whistler’s Night Sky.

Abstract pieces by Peter Skwiot Smith:

“These images reveal layers comprised of audible and invisible sound that may or may not exist — influences and images seen in these flashes are random and endless.”

Vir Heroicus Sublimis, Barnett Newman (1950-51)

From MoMA:

Vir Heroicus Sublimis, Newman’s largest painting at the time of its completion, is meant to overwhelm the senses. viewers may be inclined to step back from it to see it all at once, but Newman instructed precisely the opposite. When the painting was first exhibited, in 1951 at the Betty Parsons Gallery in New York, Newman tacked to the wall a notice that read, “There is a tendency to look at large pictures from a distance. The large pictures in this exhibition are intended to be seen from a short distance.” Newman believed deeply in the spiritual potential of abstract art. The Latin title of this painting means “Man, heroic and sublime.” 

Just the sheer size of it (18 ft long x 8 ft tall) is enough to overpower and wash cadmium red all over you. Viewing it in person makes me feel clean, refreshed, and at ease. I’d take out a MoMA membership just so I can visit this painting. 

Truly sublime.

Really great works. I like how the abstractions are a little eerie, not unlike a fragment of your memory where subjects seem dream-like yet just clear enough to seem real.
