The Creator
“Airman doing art”, Mauro Jucewicz found in painting a way out of his rigid and full of calculated procedures world.
Adopting an unique abstract style of spontaneous and energetic moves, the artist attacks the canvas creating an havoc of layers that converge into an elaborated tapestry.
Abstract expressionism
Was never an ideal label for the movement, which developed in New York in the 1940s and 1950s. It was somehow meant to encompass not only the work of painters who filled their canvases with field of color and abstract forms, but also those who attacked their canvases with a vigorous gestural expressionism.
Still Abstract Expressionism has become the most accepted term for a group of artists who held much in common. All were committed to art as expressions of the self, born out of profound emotion and universal themes, and most were shaped by the legacy of Surrealism, a movement that they translated into a new style fitted to the post-war mood of anxiety and trauma. In their success, these New York painters robbed Paris of its mantle as leader of modern art, and set the stage for America’s dominance of the international art world.
