ABOUT THE ARTIST

(American, 1942 – 2010)

Known for his graphic compositions with geometric shapes and vibrant colors, artist Jerry Kellems specialized in paintings that often feature a textural element as he layered his surfaces with dotted pigments. He explained that marks and lines are important building blocks in his compositions, as marks form color and lines define volume. Influenced by Pre-Columbian art and artists George Grosz (German,1893-1959), Alfred Kubin (Austrian, 1877-1959), sculptor H.C. Westerman (American, 1922-1981), and cartoonist George Herriman (American, 1880-1944), much of Kellems technique and content also recalls Aboriginal art, visible in his use of dots, patterned borders, and biomorphic shapes.
