‘I am particularly proud of my Australian heritage. In my case much of my inspiration has emanated from that environment.’
For her first solo exhibition at Sundaram Tagore Gallery New York, renowned Australian-American artist Denise Green, who studied under Mark Rothko and Robert Motherwell, applies Indian and Aboriginal philosophy to modernist technique, composing deeply personal works. Disembodied objects such as cut roses, fan-like shapes and stone fragments hover in the center of her paintings. Yet the objects are not to be read literally, nor do they bear specific meaning. Rather they are derived from a bank of personal and cultural imagery. Her paintings collapse boundaries between the interior spiritual world and the physical material world. Multivalent and challenging, Green’s work gives new meaning to the notion of globalization in art.
Born in Australia, Green arrived in New York City in 1969. Her first major exhibition New Image Painting at the Whitney Museum in 1978 launched her into the New York art world. Denise Green has had more than 90 solo exhibitions and her work has been the subject of nine museum retrospectives over the last decade including P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center/MoMA in New York (1999), the Art Gallery of New South Wales (2001) and the Museum Kurhaus Kleve in Germany (2006). Her paintings are in the collections of the National Gallery of Australia; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney; the Museum of Modern Art, New York; The Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York; Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C; and the Albertina Museum, Vienna. In 2007 she was awarded the Order of Australia.
