Suzanne Jill Levy Journey On, 2021 Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Connecticut based artist, Suzanne Jill Levy, was raised in a household saturated with art. It is her lifelong passion. With a primary focus on abstract art, Suzanne's work is bold and modern. Her use of color and graphic abstraction is powerful and exciting. Her paintings can be seen in gallery and juried exhibitions, auctions, corporate and private collections and on craft beer cans. While living in NYC she painted the New York City Marathon mural finish line art work on the road in Central Park. Her engagement in art was incorporated in all her educational endeavours. After earning a Master in Social Work degree and moving to Manhattan, she studied at the Art Students League of New York, the country's oldest independent art school. She had access to some of the greatest art museums and galleries for inspiration. Upon moving to Connecticut with her husband and two daughters, she chose to dedicate her energies to working as an artist full time. As an active member of the Canton Artist's Guild, she chairs the curation/hanging committee, assembling exhibitions of a community of artists. Currently the Gala Chair of the New Britain Museum of American Art, Suzanne donates work to the Museum's fundraising events and other organisations. With a background in social work and her artistic focus, Suzanne has taught art to adults with special needs and offers her time and talents to her community.

I am an abstract artist motivated by the desire to interpret what I see in the most basic elements. A beautiful friend and a magnificent place inspired this series. Focusing on colour and subtle composition changes, I alter the outcome of each piece. There is a consistent pattern that travels throughout, while maintaining every painting's individuality. The images manipulate the visual field and allow for personal interpretation and contemplation. I see this work as an enchanted forest, a world where colour and shape dominate the story. This engaging and stimulating work invites the viewer to enter and journey through.

I am an abstract artist motivated by the desire to interpret what I see in the most basic elements. A beautiful friend and a magnificent place inspired this series. Focusing on colour and subtle composition changes, I alter the outcome of each piece. There is a consistent pattern that travels throughout, while maintaining every painting's individuality. The images manipulate the visual field and allow for personal interpretation and contemplation. I see this work as an enchanted forest, a world where colour and shape dominate the story. This engaging and stimulating work invites the viewer to enter and journey through.

Ernst Cremer, Hanns Bolz. Botschafter der Moderne, Alsdorf 2018, S. 232. Der früh verstorbene Hanns Bolz gehört zu den großen expressionistischen Talenten des Rheinlandes. Erst in den 1960er Jahren beginnt die kunsthistorische Forschung langsam den Namen Hanns Bolz aus der Vergessenheit zu holen, wobei einer umfassenden Beschäftigung mit seinem Werk leider bis heute die geringe Zahl an erhaltenen Arbeiten entgegensteht, da Bolz testamentarisch die Vernichtung seines Werkes verfügt und den Großteil seine Werke vor seinem Tod selbst vernichtet hat. Hanns Bolz absolviert wohl um 1905/1908 ein Studium an der Düsseldorfer Kunstakademie. Im Anschluss geht er nach Paris, wo er bis Kriegsbeginn die meiste Zeit verbringt. Er mietet sich ein Atelier auf dem Montmartre, rue Gabrielle 49, das zuvor von Pablo Picasso genutzt wurde. Im Café du Dôme ist er ständiger Gast und gehört bald zu der kleinen deutschen Künstlerkolonie, die sich dort um Purrmann und Levy etabliert hatte. Spätestens hier lernt er den Kunsthändler Alfred Flechtheim kennen, der den illustren und in seinen Stilrichtungen ganz heterogenen Kreis der 'Dômiers' 1914 erstmals in seiner Galerie zeigt. Bolz wird bereits zu Lebzeiten bei den Kunsthändlern Hans Goltz in München und bei Alfred Flechtheim in Düsseldorf ausgestellt, die beide als Wegbereiter der Moderne gelten. In seinem malerischen Werk zeigt sich deutlich die Auseinandersetzung mit dem französischen Kubismus und Fauvismus. In den ersten Pariser Jahren ist wohl auch unser Porträt entstanden, das wahrscheinlich den berühmten Moderne-Händler Alfred Flechtheim zeigt. Auffällig ist die charakteristische Physiognomie des Dargestellten: die große, markante Nase, die fliehende Stirn, das spitze Kinn und der große Mund mit den vollen Lippen. Die Beleuchtung von schräg hinten verleiht den ernergischen Gesichtszügen eine besondere Prägnanz. Typisch für das Werk von Bolz ist hier die gedämpfte Farbpalette und die kubistisch beeinflusste Behandlung von Licht und Schatten, die ein Gegeneinandersetzen heller und dunkler Bildzonen mit sanften Modulationen und Übergängen zu vereinen versteht. Hanns Bolz ist auf allen wichtigen Ausstellungen seiner Zeit vertreten. Er nimmt an der Sonderbundausstellung 1912 in Köln, der Armory Show in New York und Chicago und an Herwarth Waldens 'Erstem Deutschen Herbstsalon' 1913 in Berlin teil. 1914 wird der Künstler zum Militärdienst eingezogen und erleidet eine schwere Gasvergiftung, die ihn teilweise erblinden lässt. Bolz wird vorzeitig entlassen und verstirbt 1918 an den Folgen seiner Kriegsverletzung in der Kuranstalt Neuwittelsbach bei München. Alfred Flechtheim zeigt 1922 in seiner Galerie unter dem Titel 'Hanns Bolz. In Memoriam' eine Gedächtnisausstellung mit 30 Gemälden des damals hoch geschätzten und heute leider nahezu vergessenen Rheinländers. [JS] Aufrufzeit: 11.12.2020 - ca. 19.02 h +/- 20 Min.
