Fresh from her summer residency in Georgia, Abby Goldstein is back in New York City with a beautiful body of new work! Influenced by maps and the rhythms and patterns of nature, Goldstein's work has taken on a natural color palette with references to biology and flora intertwined with her characteristically lyrical line. In the words of Paul Klee "a line is a dot that went for a walk" and Abby's works are a mass of wandering dots spreading across the paper, intertwining and overlapping each other to create an abstract web of line and color. Perhaps in an effort to contain her roaming line, Abby often marks out a pencil drawn border within the page. This imposed perimeter however seems no match for her line and it's boundaries are often breached by the wandering dots. The edge of the page is more definite and not so forgiving and an interesting tension is created between the surface of the paper and the markings of Goldstein. The masses of lines have no option in this case but to bounce around the interior of the page, twisting back from the edge to reconnect with the central mass as if encased by the 2 dimensional format. We are thrilled to add a selection of Abby's summer portfolio to TWFineArt's New Art in Print. Visit Abby's PAGE to see the new selection of work in limited edition print. Small prints start at $85.00 and we ship world wide.
