ANDREW MASULLO
Recent Paintings
September 12 - October 19, 2002
Reception for the artist on September 19, 6-8 pm.

The forthcoming Andrew Masullo exhibition of recent paintings will be the second held at the Joan T. Washburn Gallery and will inaugurate the Fall 2002 season.

Masullo will show some 20 paintings completed in the last two years after the artist moved from New York to San Francisco. Brilliant in color, some heavily impastoed, the paintings range in size from 4 x 6 inches to 24 x 30 inches.

John Yau wrote in the catalogue introduction to Masullo's first exhibition at the Washburn Gallery held two years ago:
’Placing the painting on his lap, he carefully addresses every square inch of his composition... Masullo’s synthesis of bright and pastel colors with a time-based physicality is poignant and disquieting... Masullos’s picture plane becomes an area of different, simultaneous events. Harmony and disharmony seamlessly coexist. Even though the colors might be thought decorative or cheerful, the effect is jarring and agressive. Harmony and disharmony seamlessly coexist.’

The catalogue with biography and five color reproductions is enclosed. For further information and photographs, contact Joan Washburn at the address below.
