Explore the abstract world of Louise P. Sloane, a prolific painter since 1974. Her art seamlessly blends personal text and experimental elements, echoing reductive and minimalist ideologies while celebrating vibrant colors and the human inclination for mark-making.
Sloane's meticulous works often showcase rectangles and squares, with the quadrangle as a recurring motif within a grid. Despite repetitive geometries, she emphasizes the distinctly human-made nature of her art. Thick paint forms handmade patterns, revealing the human touch behind each brushstroke.
Signature extrusions on the surface feature painstakingly written and overwritten text—a form of private meditation. The relief and color blocking abstract the text, inviting interpretation through physicality rather than literal meaning. Contrasting colors intensify surface texture dimensionality.
Sloane's color choices, used without mixing, create optical blending. Witness the dynamic interplay of mark-making, color, and geometry as they compete for attention, keeping viewers engaged and in constant motion. This dynamic unity revolves around Sloane's enduring fascination with the form of the square.
