W.C. Richardson

Art Brokerage: W.C. Richardson American Artist: W.C. Richardson received his MFA in Painting from Washington University at St. Louis and his BFA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His paintings begin with a grid and a ruled, measured drawing. The geometric armatures are developed and defined by a layering of painterly processes where countervailing elements leave their imprints on each other, interpenetrating and interacting with constructive interference. The resulting space is not based on the illusion of three dimensions,but is one that continuously shifts and reconfigures. Forms circulate above, on, below, and through the layered surface in which they are grounded. I find the opposition of the physically constructed painting and the optically unstable space to be endlessly fruitful. Listings Wanted.
