About the Item

Enamel and oil on canvas Signed, titled, and dated on overlap 24 x 24 inches Big Feeling from 2014 reflects a calculated process in which John Zinsser has meticulously and intentionally laid down thick lines and vertical swathes of paint to create a grid-like network that contains clusters of paint contributing to the overall texture of the painting. This is a minimalist work that has a sculptural feel and is done on very high quality stretchers so that it hangs well without framing. Zinsser places a strong emphasis on the materiality of paint itself which is enhanced by the monochromatic color range seen in our example. The fundamental element that defines this work shown is the exploration of the pure materiality of paint and the essence of color. Such medium scale paintings are derived from an intense process of brushworks in which Zinsser uses impasto oil technique with a thick- textured paint that is almost three- dimensional in appearance. This painting is striking and has a presence all its own. Zinsser, a devotee of postwar Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism for decades, finds inspiration for such works in New York City where he lives and paints. The artist has once been quoted as saying: I have always been attracted to colors as they exist in the world, rather than making imitative color. All of these colors have associations to observed experience—a garage door, the wall of a warehouse, the side of a truck. John Zinsser has exhibited extensively in Europe and the United States since 1980. His paintings are in the Richard Brown Baker Collection at Yale, the Sammlung Goetz in Munich, the Mint Museum in Charlotte, North Carolina, and in the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut.
