Tom Ward at Gallery 444 PTown
Opening on Friday night.
Tom Ward is an American painter whose work follows the abstract expressionist praxis of unconventional mark making. He prefers scrapers, cups, and squeegees over traditional brushes. Most of the time, the work-in-progress is on the floor, and he’s either outstretched over it or running around it, manipulating the paint by pouring, smearing, splatting, or monoprinting the color directly to the canvas.
Ward wants his paintings to confront you with a raw honesty. They are not about anything conceptual or representational. Each piece records a series of personal decisions made through color, composition, and texture in a very specific window of time. They are what they are, and the viewer can experience them without the influence of outside preconceptions.
