New Abstraction News: Instant Identification
Lesny JN Felix Debuts 13 New Abstract Paintings on the Bowery
“What you see in my work is not intentional.
Some people say they see fish. I say, ‘I don’t see no damn fish. But hey, I cannot tell you that. I don’t want to take your fish away from you.’”
--Lesny JN Felix
New York City—Painter Lesny JN Felix is starting his own one-person school of art: the New Abstraction News. The Haitian-American's new exhibition Instant Identification will debut at the Lower East Side’s pop-up gallery at 215 Bowery on Tuesday, July 30, 2013, with a free opening party from 7 to 10 pm (open to the general public). Fans and collectors will have the opportunity to meet the artist and view his newest paintings.
Since his last major show in New York in 2012, Lesny JN Felix’s work has matured further into more complex abstractions. While his new paintings still retain their multi-hued exuberance, they have become more nuanced.
JN Felix's main interest are colors and shapes, and the multi-faceted ways of combining them on the blank space of the canvas. In 2013, his forms have morphed into totally independent entities, which become the "figures" of his abstract paintings. They flow
together through the imaginary space of the canvas, turning his compositions into eye-mesmerizing kaleidoscopic abstractions. JN Felix references Henri Matisse’s vibrant colors and plant-like forms, Arshile Gorky’s amoeba-like shapes, Andre Masson's "ecriture automatique", Piet Mondrian’s grids, Sam Francis' edges, Mark Rothko's intensity and - more recently- Salvador Dali's melting forms, while maintaining his personal palette and arrangement in his quest to become "factory-like" in his immense output of creative work.
Picking up where the Abstract Expressionists of the 1950s left off, Lesny JN Felix has founded - with a wink in his eye - his own one man movement New Abstraction News to push the concepts of nonfigurative art, spontaneity, and impulse to the next level.
While the Abstract Expressionist artist Franz Kline’s paintings may look off the cuff, he actually composed sketches on telephone-book pages before beginning his large-scale work. Any sketching JN Felix does happens directly on the canvas, where he’ll improvise until the painting reaches a quality he deems worth being able to hang “next to [a] Rothko.” Lesny JN Felix’s work is playful yet informed. He embraces art history while pushing toward a new vision of abstraction - his complex style - which has already gained him "Instant Identification".
About the artist: Lesny NJ Felix has emerged as one of the new talents of New York City's art scene. The Haitian-American artist started painting in 2005. Since then the artist has immersed himself into the vibrant downtown art scene.
