Abstract ViewsLandscapes
Abstract landscapes, rendered in vibrant and autonomous colors, constitute a large part of Steffa Reis’ work, including her significant large-scale paintings from the early 1980s. Although the painterly syntax is abstract, her abstraction results from a sensory experience, from a reflexive observation of nature; one may sense, associate, imagine and even discern such elements as air, water, light, shadow, and seasons of the year.
Three compositional concepts are clearly evident here: the assembly of large color fields; the all-encompassing amalgam of small color patches; and the array of fragmented geometric forms that recall aerial views.
