Green 1977

Edward Avedisian’s "Green" is a vibrant, intuitive dance of color and form, made with paint and a whole lot of feeling. It's less about representation and more about the sheer joy of putting paint to surface, a celebration of the act of artmaking itself. Look at the surface, how Avedisian lets the paint drip and pool, embracing the materiality of his medium. Those splatters of blue, like happy little accidents, disrupt the geometric forms, adding a layer of playfulness. The thick strokes of yellow, they have a real physicality, almost daring you to reach out and touch them. It reminds me of Larry Rivers, both artists share this interest in the language of abstract expressionism, yet push it toward something new, something uniquely their own. Ultimately, "Green" invites us to see beyond the surface, to embrace the ambiguity and multiple interpretations inherent in art. It's a reminder that art is not about fixed meanings, but about the ongoing conversation between artist, artwork, and viewer.
