Wendy Cohen – New paintings
Wendy Cohen is a South African-born, Sydney-based artist renowned for her vibrant and dynamic abstract paintings. Her work is characterized by a unique blend of abstract expressionism and geometric abstraction, creating a harmonious interplay between color, shape, and texture. Cohen’s art often explores the relationship between urban and natural environments, using a variety of mixed media elements like linen, cardboard, and recycled materials to add depth and tactile quality to her pieces.
Cohen has exhibited internationally, including at prestigious events such as the New York Art Expo, Art Spectrum Miami, and The Other Art Fair in Sydney. Her works are noted for their energy and movement, often drawing viewers into a dialogue with the canvas, where color and form evoke a range of emotional responses. Her paintings are deeply influenced by artists like Helen Frankenthaler and Amy Sillman, yet they stand out for their innovative use of materials and the sense of rhythm and movement that they convey.
Cohen’s approach is both spontaneous and meticulously crafted, often creating a sense of layered textures that invite viewers to engage both visually and tactilely. Her work has been recognized with several awards, including being named a Top 60 Master by Art Tour International and Artist of the Future by Contemporary Art Curator Magazine.
