關於 約翰・維塔萊 John Vitale

約翰・維塔萊(John Vitale)於 1979 年出生於美國伊利諾伊州,曾居住於喬治亞州、北加州及奧勒岡州,現於紐約從事藝術創作。以簡約的色塊抽象藝術為主要創作語言,探索意識、空間與情感之間的關係。

受到 1950 至 1960 年代抽象表現主義(Abstract Expressionism)影響,Vitale 透過色彩、線條與負空間(Negative Space)的交互作用,將內在意識與潛意識轉化為抽象畫面。他反覆堆疊、覆蓋顏料,藉由畫面的生成與消解,尋找空間、物質與情緒之間的平衡,建立出兼具張力與和諧的視覺語言。

John Vitale 曾多次於奧勒岡州 Chefas Projects 舉辦個展,並於西雅圖、德州、紐約等地展出作品,亦參與多場聯展與藝術計畫。2024 年,他於紐約共同創立藝術空間 Pollyanna Projects,持續拓展藝術創作與策展實踐,並透過不同媒介探索抽象藝術更多元的可能性。
