Gina Keatley’s Work: An Anthology of Abstract Expressionism

Gina Keatley’s work, celebrated in the heart of New York City, presents an anthology of abstract expressionism. Her portfolio, marked by the deliberate interplay of monochrome and vibrant infusions of mandarin orange, invites an exploration of human emotion. This signature use of color—both restrained and poignant—illuminates the narratives etched in the stark, sweeping lines of her canvases, fostering a connection that is both introspective and visceral.

“Più: Passion and Innovation”

The title “Più” (meaning “more” in Italian) highlights the idea of continuous growth, passion, and innovation. It reflects the pursuit of more—more opportunities, more connections, and more cultural exploration—capturing both the historic and modern Italian-American experience. Through this title, Keatley emphasizes the journey of Italians seeking a deeper understanding of their heritage while embracing new forms of creative expression.

Atmospheric Fauna: Exploring the Unknown

The “Atmospheric Fauna” series plunges viewers into the enigmatic realm of UFO and UAP phenomena. Composed of eight evocative works, this collection transcends conventional perception, bringing to life unseen entities. Keatley’s use of acrylic paint, shredded paper, and mixed media creates a rich tapestry of textures, evoking a world where the organic and mysterious intertwine. The series presents UFOs as living entities, pulsating with dynamic energy. Through monochrome shades and vibrant infusions, Keatley invites viewers to explore the hidden dimensions of our world, challenging perceptions and embracing the possibility of life beyond our planet.

Reflecting on her work, Keatley states, “Art is meant to provoke thought, to challenge our perceptions.” Her diverse series—from the foundational “Bone Series” to the fluid “Glimpse Series” and the mysterious “Atmospheric Fauna”—collectively capture the essence of human experience and the unknown, making her a compelling voice in contemporary art.

Glimpse Series: Capturing the Ephemeral Essence of Emotion

Unveiled in Spring 2024, the “Glimpse Series” delves into the fleeting and ephemeral aspects of human emotion and perception. While sharing stylistic elements with the “Bone Series,” it emphasizes the transitory nature of our experiences. Dreamlike scenes and fluid expressions characterize this series, where vibrant splashes of color amidst subdued tones convey movement and transformation. The “Glimpse Series” challenges viewers to explore the transient beauty and emotional depth of fleeting moments, urging introspection and personal connection.

Bone Series: A Vanguard of Modern Artistic Exploration

The “Bone Series” stands out as a testament to the power of abstract expressionism and the profound narrative potential of modern art. This series, a highlight of Keatley’s “Untamed Moderns” collection, captures her unique artistic philosophy. Through the minimalist yet impactful language of monochrome and mandarin orange, Keatley explores themes of resilience and transformation. Each piece evokes strong emotional responses, engaging viewers in a reflective and transformative experience. The textural complexity achieved through acrylic and mixed media adds depth, making each viewing a unique encounter.
