About Marsha Solomon’s Painting
Marsha Solomon is an accomplished New York artist whose work has been widely exhibited in New York, as well as across the United States, Europe and Asia.
Solomon's series “From Rhythm to Form” follow a simple yet powerful formula, in which the interplay of jewel-like colors, the variation of opacity—from soft washes to thick strokes of impasto—and positive and negative spaces all combine to create a dynamic image, born from nature and intuition. Line, color and form unite on her canvasses to create an atmospheric, mystical space of serenity infused with energy.
Solomon’s paintings recall works by New York Abstract Expressionist painters like Helen Frankenthaler, Robert Motherwell and Morris Louis. Light, ethereal pools of color surrounded with strong, heavy strokes of paint, result in thoughtful, controlled compositions which are spontaneous and balanced, and bring viewers to a place of stillness, reflection and even joy.
Solomon's paintings have been shown in prestigious institutions in New York, Chicago, and Washington, Sienna and Turin, London, Italy, Seoul, and Singapore and have been reviewed in publications such as The New York Art Review, Long Island Pulse Magazine, The NY Press, and NY Arts Magazine.
