Steven Zevitas Editor & Publisher

Because our release schedule has become so backlogged, I was forced to make a difficult decision. Issue numbers 154, 155, 156 and 157 of New American Paintings were, over the past three months, released in digital form only. (To mitigate the situation, we made all of these issues free to the world in digital form.) The obvious drawback of this is that we now have a gaping hole in the printed publication’s



Noteworthy:

Autumn Wallace

Juror’s Pick p148

The way Autumn Wallace talks about “double consciousness” reminds us that perception IS interpretation. There is a strangeness and delightful inconsistency to her work that conjures Hans Bellmer, Kerry James Marshall, and Bri Brooks in equal measure. The best art disorients and magnetizes the eye. Take a look. n

Linus Borgo

Editor’s Pick p28

I first saw the painting that appears on the cover of this issue on Instagram, and it stopped me in my tracks. I was impressed with the work’s clarity and sensed in it a deep vulnerability. As it turns out, Borgo’s practice largely revolves around a personal trauma that occurred when he was only fourteen years old: a high-voltage shock that left him with third-degree burns all over his body and necessitated the amputation of his left hand. Working through selfportraiture, and with a keen interest in art history, Borgo attempts to understand the limits of his body and, by extension, our corporeal nature. n

My works are representations of inner journeys, giving shape to a range of emotions I encounter while in introspection. My paintings, drawings, and sculptural frames anchor the viewer in landscapes of my subconscious, where terrains of apprehension and disquiet bathe in the solace of a full moon’s light. Although my work is rooted in psychology, the images exist in a world that is familiar to me. I paint light and places that everyone, and yet no one, has seen.

Each piece I make drifts along a spectrum between specificity and complete dissociation. Sometimes the images are dreamlike but recognizable, at other times a complete abstraction. Although at times my inspiration comes from a certain personal space, I am not attempting to illustrate an exact event. Rather, I attempt to capture a feeling. Moments when one’s own feelings involve two sides of the coin. A contrast that is impossible to explain with words, but is felt immediately upon viewing: attraction and disdain, joy and pain, expansion and compression.

Where We Once Were Someone, Young Space (online)

New York, NY

In 2014, when I was eighteen years old, there was an electrical accident where I was shocked with 11,000 volts, resulting in eleven surgeries to treat the third-degree burns all over my body, and the amputation of my left hand. All of the subsequent work I have made is an attempt to grapple with the new physical and metaphysical limits of the body I live in. Working through Self-portraiture, I study my own body as one might study a mathematical problem, searching for what was subtracted or rearranged, what is hidden, what is imagined, and what is a memory. What new boundaries has the surgeon’s incisions drawn on my body, and how does this manifest in the boredom of everyday life. I draw heavily on my childhood fascination with Italian Renaissance paintings, from which I learned to draw when I was still in a stroller, as well as my years of classical training in figure drawing and anatomy. I believe my work lies somewhere in the gap between the quotidian and trauma.

Amy Bravo is interested in the shared language of culture and family, be it a found, queer family or blood relatives. Her work is an attempt to reflect her existence as a queer Cuban person building a found family, with few living blood relatives of Cuban descent left. Challenged with the complications of Cuban politics, Bravo’s large-scale paintings seek to create an impossible utopia in the vague outline of Cuba. This utopian desire hinges on the question of what it means to love someone or somewhere you do not always agree with. What does it mean to love unconditionally? What toll does it take?

I paint to explore the blurry border between our inner and outer reality in daily life. Through an assemblage of painting, drawing, photography, and printmaking, I seek to synthesize visual languages sampled from antiquity to modernism in order to describe the contemporary mind and observer. My work explores the complex relationships between the virtual and the real, the intimate and the public, the factual and the imagined.

My paintings flicker between gestural marks, sensitive drawing, and highly photographic elements. In their amalgamation, these disparate parts harmonize to evoke a sensation of lived experience. Using potent color and intimate brush marks, I create a convincing reality that breaks with abstraction. I animate quiet interiors with emotional and psychological depth.

I create fictional images that serve as a platform to explore my emotional experiences. Sensations of destitution, melancholy, lust, optimism, queer desire, and the euphoric have all been used as a jumping-off point to make a picture. Taking formal cues from the history of Western painting, I use light and color to emote and dramatize an image. I understand color as an element of artifice within representational painting, and approach it with a camp sensibility to explore its potential to invoke a sense of atmosphere, time of day, the theatrical, and the spiritual. Working exclusively with the male figure, I am interested in depicting men as vulnerable rather than heroic, subverting art-historical norms through a queer point of view. Ultimately, I employ the dreamy space of painting to create an empathetic experience.

My work explores the anxiety of humankind in the twentyfirst century. My goal is to capture the human body in all its vulnerability by celebrating our perceived flaws. In order to demystify the nude, one has to find beauty in the grotesque, yet in an affectionate manner. My subjects are imperfect and I do not flatter them. I paint them with emotional honesty. Their nudity becomes a vehicle for presenting the psychology of the sitter over the formality of portraiture, allowing me to discover and pierce the unconscious. I choose my models for their ability to inspire empathy for our universal humanness, and their capacity to confront the truth within ourselves as to what we believe to be beautiful.

The moment my mother told me we came from a family of seers, I’ve learned never to take my dreams lightly. I began to paint every surreal scene, place, and person that haunted me in order to analyze each message. It’s for the story that each painting holds and for my determination to create that I depict everything with such detail and color as acrylics and my skills afford me on canvas.

I experience painting as an intellectual activity but with the immediate act as intrinsic and intuitive. I paint from a space of internal submission, though with a decisive vision leading the image. There is a conversation between using the medium to my will and letting the medium lead me. My work focuses on a search for open space, both internally and externally. My paintings are meant to be expansions of space into the immaterial or cerebral realms. Absence and presence coexist within my images; both a dissolution and coherency of identity occur. I believe that the importance of finding empty space internally is just as crucial to the human spirit as conserving open land is to nature and her ecosystems. My images, too, explore our novel position, coined as the Anthropocene. Where in the world does open space still exist without political or industrial control? In our contemporary manmade environmental crisis, it is not just the biosphere that is disappearing. Our history, heritage, and communion with the land is in question as well.

My paintings address issues of gender definition, selfidentification, and female objectification, using stylized figuration and saturated high-key color. I emphasize and exaggerate stereotypical concepts of precision, perfection, and beauty in femininity. My females are both representations of self and faceless archetypes, eliciting questions about identity, selfawareness, and sentiment. I explore codes of femininity while also addressing issues of willingness and consent. I often insert my subjects into situations where self-control and self-awareness are requisites. My work can best be described as belonging to the “New Surrealist” movement, using an abstract visual language to express the objectification of women’s bodies. The border frames that I paint on the canvas serve as both an additional element of pattern and a transitional bridge from canvas to wall, easing the visual abruptness of the change in surface.

My research examines patriarchy through a transnational justice and feminist lens in the Middle East. I combine family portraits and aspects of Islamic architecture to unveil parts of the denied feminist history and connect viewers with the resilience and agency of Iranian (Muslim) women. Layering formal meaning through the various mediums I use, my work juxtaposes the past with the present, history with memory, and fiction with reality. My art ultimately asks the viewer to consider persistent colonial stereotypes that fetishize women in postrevolutionary Iran, and reframes Iran’s history through a feminist lens. I like to layer techniques and materials like projection video, drawing, light resource, or prints on my paintings.

These vibrant figurative works develop from intuitive marks on the surface into narrative paintings intertwined with the embodiment of human emotion and my personal experiences throughout life. The surrealistic oil paintings are considered displays of anxiety, melancholy, manual labor, the pressures of life, and the feeling of not belonging. The expressive cast of stylized figures with exaggerated features and unnatural flesh tones are proxies for the viewer as they try to find connection within the present circumstances. Fusing a variety of arthistorical references, from German Expressionism to Peter Saul and the Chicago Imagists, the work engages visual metaphors, absurd hypothetical situations, social commentary, and humor to explore the psychological and physical endurance required by our contemporary life.

Growing up in the Western United States, my sense of space was shaped by the rhythms of light and time visible in the natural. I learned to observe shifting states of balance and harmony from nature. For me, these states are spaces of freedom and democracy. Like Byzantine architecture and mandala drawings, my work lies in the tradition of creating spaces that embody the sensation of the sacred or mystical. In each artwork, I invite the viewer to seek tranquility and equality.

With influences from Euclidean diagrams to minimalism, I create colorful, geometric installations, paintings, mixed-media works, and prints. I construct patterns with a sense of vibration, establishing a physical relationship to the eye and the body. Using scale, abstraction, and repetition, I devise spatial relationships with psychological tension and release. These psychological spaces give me room to consider human interactions in a visual way, and my geometries become metaphors for those interactions. Compositionally, I want each work to come to a state of equilibrium, and to emanate a sense of calm and openness.

I am interested in the narrative and psychological nature of portraiture. Contemporary paintings of specific people simultaneously raise questions and offer clues about individual identity and the larger cultural context in which the subjects exist. My goal is not simply to show what a person looks like, but to examine, through subjective interpretation, who that person is, wants to be, has been. Often, the subjects’ material surroundings also reflect some aspect of personal desire or identity that is linked to the emotional underpinning of the portrait. My current series focuses on men: an open-ended investigation of contemporary manhood, from this woman’s point of view. Who rejects toxic masculinity and who clings to it? Who embodies a more nurturing way of living in the world? How do boys absorb mixed cultural messages about how to be a man, here and now?

In Western painting, the domestic interior has been a place for investigating the psyche and intimate relationships. My paintings draw from quattrocento Italian painting and seventeenth-century Dutch interiors in their use of simple geometry and symbolism, as well as in their stoicism. Drawing a parallel between intimate personal experience and imperfect historical narratives, I compare the domestic and psychological interior and how they are mutually symbolic and influential. Referencing the nostalgia of nineteenth-century academic painting, my paintings allow a space for questioning the forgetful serenity often depicted, and acknowledge an undercurrent of a more complex reality. I use cultural appropriation in Western art and decoration as a general symbol for unconscious personal development in postimperial international society. As development of society and the psyche straddle pastiche, compilation, and imitation, the lack of clarity of self becomes evidence of the internal psychological void and human state of fragility and vulnerability.

In my work I most often look to Mariah Carey, Céline Dion, figure skating, and the romantic landscapes of the nineteenth century. I collect and collage images of these and other subjects to create dramatic scenes with new, personal narratives. For example, I might take (and have taken) an image of Mariah Carey performing a whistle note, her hand to her ear, and transform her into a man, nude, copying her pose while dancing like a figure skater before an erupting volcano.

Basta Così: The Lemon Has Been Squeezed, Palazzetto Cenci, Rome, Italy

Through layers of acrylic paint and wax crayon, I craft a world steeped in the aesthetic history of romanticism. It is a world where my figures can exist openly, a ritualistic place to go and be free. I see this as more than a formal pictorial invention, but as places to empower queer narratives in the history of painting figures in landscape.

I make hedonistic dreamscapes of a single figure, duplicated and expanded, interacting with itself under the night sky or on velvetcurtained stages. The figural projections harm one another, comfort one another, and enact punishments. Adorned with the trappings of femininity—lingerie, ballet shoes, stockings, veils— these figures wear the costume of womanhood while acting outside the bounds of that construct. They perform the roles of punisher and punished, healer and sick, seducer and seduced, victim and perpetrator. My paintings grapple with shame—of the body, of leisure, of destructive impulses. They deal with desire— the desire to be closer to nature, to be rid of shame, to be in a group. Coexisting with the desire for violence, these paintings grapple with the desire to heal. I am interested in what feminine power looks like, both the inaccurate picture that has been sold to us and what that power would actually look like if we were able to collectively possess it, in its highest form.

My paintings have a sensory agenda.

Education

The somatic experience of suspension and longing that melodies capture so easily requires a synesthetic approach in pictures. My imagery pulls from the flowers of New York, specifically the rosebushes of my neighborhood, Ridgewood, Queens, which seem to whisper to me. As opposed to narrative, I invoke these forms like a medium. Their color, light, movement, and mood are the true conduits of meaning, vehicles for an experience that resonates in the body.

Dogmatic Magic, SPRING/BREAK Art Show, New York, NY

Queer culture and visibility are more important than ever in a moment where queer identity and queer bodies are under attack. Painting has a responsibility to its own history but functions powerfully as a tool to combat the dangers that queerness is facing. My work is fiction that attempts to elevate queer realities to the level of mythological canon. Queer culture mythologizes sex and sexuality as equal parts abject and the ultimate out-of-reach experience. It’s both normalized and sometimes beyond reach, existing singularly as a dichotomy. In my paintings, queer identity is coded to exist hidden in plain sight, coexisting between oppression and desire, a chimeric blending of coexistent realities. In the natural world, bright colors and intricate patterns in animals act as a warning. By decorating figures the same way, I try to seduce while maintaining the same level of danger. I am drawn to monsters, half-man halfbeasts in particular, which always functioned in mythology as the symbolic interruption of heteronormative coupling. In the worlds I create, these figures are both normal and desirable.

I am intrigued by the contrast between ambiguity and specificity. I use found images as the starting place in the building of surreal or unlikely narratives, created from layers, marks, tones, and details. I am always seeking to create a convincing visual language that allows for many interpretations of a familiar yet surreal scene in a paused moment of time. I want to trigger memories, for I believe that vision is shaped by thousands of remembered moments.

The sun leaves me to find you, Third Room, Portland, OR What Is Lost in Distance and Separation, Winterfeldstr 56, Berlin, Germany

I work in a variety of mediums—engaging in painting, cyanotypes, fabric-dyeing, print, and sculpture—and look at the ways in which images, objects, and rituals embedded in personal histories can relate to a larger cultural context. Having grown up in Texas as Iranian and American, I place my family and Persian heritage under an intimate meditative lens, reflecting on ideas of distance, separation, memorialization, and connection. My work is both sentimental and critical, addressing how we read, identify, and value things.

Born in a small town in the Dominican Republic, I retain a connection with my Dominican heritage through my art, incorporating elements of the Caribbean with my own distinctive details. Through a combination of painting and drawing, I adhere life-size paper figures onto painted wood panels. My subjects are bold yet strange, often appearing mysteriously oversized or contorted.

In my examination of the “self” and its iterations, I employ kitsch associations and humor to point at my own uncertainties and looming discomforts. These works act as extensions of myself, portraits of my anxieties, angers, habits, and physicality. The bodies are heavy, textured, swollen, and physical. Nakedness of the body paired with an eye-locking, dominant gaze are used to vulgarize feelings of being seen, the painting catching the viewer in voyeurism. Through self-portraiture, I utilize the vulnerability of sharing to give heaviness to loud colors, toying with standards, measurements, and expectations of smallness for the girls in each image. Wispy titles complicate and split the narrative; idioms and visual innuendos stitch the work tightly to what I ponder. I aim to question the structure through which we look at the body, in relation to choice, expectations, loudness, and definition. Femininity, largeness, roundness, and nakedness do not act as a detriment to the girls in the paintings but as the largest power, invading the associations surrounding them.

It is in human nature to make art that imitates the people, places, and events around us. I think about a future where we have suffered some kind of environmental or pathological devastation. People will long to connect back to the natural world they remember. This body of work represents that nostalgic view of a symbolic landscape. I imagine myself living in this altered physical world, substituting inanimate objects, both man-made and natural, for their nowdefunct originals. Here, porcelain animals represent their reallife counterparts: blue tape, bottles, and lids become water; tennis balls are the sun, and so on. Painted from observation, these still lifes are both altars to and memorials for natural habitats I fear won’t exist in the future. I see these pieces as part forewarning and part homage, depending on which side of the catastrophe they are viewed from.

The content of my work centers on stories of land use, environmental disasters, and the constant temptation of escape through amusement. I try to create time-based images within the finite, fixed frame of a painting. The imagery is often so visually complex and dense that my hand struggles to keep up and combine them. The process from sketching to painting teaches me how to decipher the complexity of the moment, and to explore the webs and networks that exist outside historical or mainstream narratives often used to describe them. I aim to create unity upon first glance, but also allow for incongruence, contradiction, and pain. The act of painting and knowing the world are intimately connected.

In my work, I explore my relationship with myself by inserting self-caricatures into scenes from an imagined reality meant to mirror my own life. Through these self-portrayals, I can form a vision of myself that feels whole, blurring the lines between a public and private sense of identity. Themes of insecurity about femininity and sexuality invite the viewer to ask what it means to be our authentic selves in a world that is constantly exploiting self-doubt.

Curator, Out of the Ruins: Reimagining the Romantic Tradition, Newton Art Center, Newton, MA

My work is focused on material culture. Using humor and metaphor, I explore how humans interact emotionally with an objective external world: the commodity objects they surround themselves with, consume, and preserve and the art objects they create. I am also interested in how humans use language and poetry to describe the intangible (feelings, aspirations, the future). My imagery is informed both by futurist speculation and past (experienced) visual motifs: the video games of the ’80s and ’90s, the patterns of the archeological artifact as well as Greek and Roman ruins. Recurring themes include the idea of the art object as a stage, or alternatively, as a fragment of something larger or a ruin. Always, I seek images that are as simple and obvious as they are strangely incoherent.

Vaziri’s recent works depict ordinary citizens who are simultaneously subjects and objects of capitalism: we are political agents of social transformation, yet inevitably subjected to socio-economic inequalities that demand that we forego our ideals for the sake of survival. In this duality and paradox of our daily life, do we need empathy or critique? In her work, the aesthetic lies exactly in this paradox.

Looking at the world through the eye of a trained architect, my pictorial work traverses the intersection between figurative painting and architecture, while drawing from an expansive breadth of idiosyncratic associations to present irreverent compositions. I construct social environments exploring notions of intimacy, sexuality, and self-concept in a satirical and macabre fashion. Through the intermingling of carnival figures, my paintings examine the inescapable performativity of being. Inscribed in social settings such as bars, museums, public squares, or cultural centers, the characters—arrested in moments of decadence and indulgence—dance, drink, and sing in an overlapping and hyperconnected manner. My satyrical choreographies brim with rhythms and striking colors, elicit ambivalent states rich in irony, joy, tenderness, and contempt. These scenes of social abundance stand in contrast to a present-day reality in which boundaries between public life and the domestic have been suddenly obliterated, feeding an impulse to reconfigure interpersonal relationships and examine the way in which bodies move through spaces.

I am a visual artist who works across media to create paintings and sculptures that examine human sexuality, gender, and the Black femme experience. Influenced by early ’90s cartoons, Byzantine aesthetics, all things Baroque, and what I describe as “low-quality adult materials,” my work generates a sense of fluidity whereby all subjects defy spatial, social, physical, emotional, and psychological boundaries, using the following set of rules:

Ode to the Mercury Thermometer, Gaa Projects, Cologne, Germany How to Hug Yourself: 10 Steps with Pictures, Gaa Gallery,

Be shameless. Create situations so intimate the viewer becomes voyeur, and so awkward the audience becomes embarrassed. Magnify perverse, sinful, and taboo sociopolitical topics to displace spectators from complacency. Listen. Challenge the need for seriousness and socially acceptable behavior and create space for the viewer to decode mindsets ingrained in culture and language itself.

Be excessive. Craft uncomfortable situations with perspectives positioned to make viewers voyeurs or participants—no bystanders allowed. Be empathetic. Remember “double consciousness,” feel who we are and how others see us—augment it. Feel the discomfort so deeply that you can only approach it through unraveling the “normal” into strands of experience. Repeat.

I make acrylic paintings about the relationship between private space and the people that inhabit and shape it. I am interested in the accretion of history and language developed between people and objects within such spaces. These observed pockets of interiority between house and home express as much about myself as my body. Private space provides potentialities of being not offered by the public sphere.

Panelist, “Analogue Rebellion: The Relevance of Mail Art in

I draw from my experiences in caregiving and disability to depict the many joyful, loving, idiosyncratic, and fraught formulations of private space between two people. I use magical realism as a way to describe the psychological tenor interwoven between body and interior over time. I imagine the conditions needed to put down roots.

My enthusiasm for all of the individual things that compose these telescoping interiors presents itself as maximalism. I use color and pattern to unify the digressions of detail within my paintings. I work iteratively, reconfiguring old paintings within new ones to generate worlds within worlds.

My body of work carries a rhythm of the muralist sensibility. I believe that nothing exists independently or in a vacuum; everything in this present moment results from earlier relationships and activities. As a result, my compositions are accumulative, fractured, connected, and stacked. The notions within my paintings express the internal and external politics that occur within my mind and body. I use languages of abstraction and representational painting as textures to depict my connections and attachments as a person and as a Mexican American. For myself, life is momento mori, the constant reminder of my mortality and the experience of dying slowly.

A need for a constructive escapism led me to create my current body of work, which simultaneously explores ideas of sanctuary, harmony, and the unknown. As I draw with colored pencils on paper, I immerse myself in a women-centered world, savoring the landscape and the pendulum between curiosity and stability. I consider the imagined environments to be a resting place after conflict—ripe for new growth and possibility. My drawings float between the internal and the external—the intuitive and the concrete—as the landscape echoes the interior of a body, and the figures explore, adapt, and plant themselves firmly.

Standing Still, James Castle House, Boise, ID

I paint from observation. Starting with a limited palette, I mix colors from life and give attention to the temperature of the light or saturation of a shadow. Through close looking, I am able to capture tactility and texture, and in doing so, depict experience and time. For me, painting is an exercise in patience and concentration that requires a willingness to be surprised. It is about looking without assumptions and listening without interruptions. A painting translates time through observation—slowing the fleeting nature of life via attention and care. It is an invitation to linger and to become aware of the details that previously blended into the surroundings. Most of all, to practice observation through painting is to resist an urge to generalize.

My recent work captures the particular scenes, emotions, and images that I experienced while on nightly excursions. At the start of the pandemic, the absence of human interaction and the collective uncertainty about the future created feelings of anxiety and fear. Like many artists, I found the act of creation challenging. There was something shameful about being in my studio when everyone in the city, everywhere in the world, was suffering. I started taking long bike rides late into the night to escape my thoughts and worries, as well as the crowded streets and subways of New York City. I found that under the cover of darkness, light appeared brighter. Moving through the night was like navigating the uncertainty of our recent moment. The moon, the stars, and the streetlights became my guides, beacons of hope, compassion, and goodwill toward humanity. Capturing these moments of light breaking through darkness brought me inner peace and comfort. I hope the viewer is able to feel that same sense of solace.

Delicious colours, seductive textures, and alluring light: the women in my paintings hold your gaze, powerful as modern goddesses. In my work, I find myself reexamining the idea of Venus—Who is she today and how has she developed?

Venus still embodies the concept of feminine sexual beauty, but this beauty is a wealth that the women in my paintings can spend as they so choose. Their power is their own. Their power may be uncomfortable. I aim to present this power in unexpected ways, such as an emanation of heat in a shadow. By embellishing a metaphoric language of skin with moments of hyper-real truth in an imagined environment, I hope my models continue the reign of Venus as an icon and reimagine her as a woman who can harness the power of her adulation. I want to show that these women relish their own beauty. Now it is their own and not a gift from a man’s gaze. Their world will be a better one.

My work can be seen as a mirror image of my mind, a surrealistic version of my mindscape. My paintings are simply about my memories, cityscapes, and people, I have seen and I have met in the city. What I feel is not exactly what you see. But what you feel is exactly what I made.
