Jean Wolff: Recent Work
February 17, 2006- March 18, 2006
511 W 25th St
The artwork of Jean Wolff focuses on working with a reduced visual vocabulary that consists of two primary elements – a circle and a grid. Jean's primary interest is in exploring the relationship of the grid to the geometric elements that are contained within it. Wolff's recent works reflect the continued circle and grid relationship, however, through a manipulation of color and spatial elements, the circle and grid are systematically broken down by the tension of a push-pull scenario. In addition, by changing the scale of the circles and in breaking down the grid, she has created a new visual vocabulary. In creating these works, she explores the many possible configurations and the relationships of the elements within the canvas plane in order to create an emotional and visual experience. It is the depth of possibilities that the circle, grid, and color present that is of the utmost importance to her work.
