The Museum of Modern Art in New York has an exhibit through April 15, 2013 titled "Inventing Abstraction 1910-1925". The New Yorker Magazine touts it as "a splendid historical survey". This exhibit gets at the origins of transformation into expressionism in the art world. The MOMA website opens with a quote from one of my inspiration artists, Kandinsky, "Must we not then renounce the object altogether, throw it to the winds and instead lay bare the purely abstract?" This statement is the essence of the process as I look through the lens and begin to summarize the subject into a solitary image. The intention is not to discard the original object, but to take it out of itself, to present it in its most pure and simple form. If you can't get to New York, at least view the exhibit through the website www.moma.org. Hopefully, you'll recognize, and perhaps even understand, the passion that drives my work.
