SUMMARY:UMaine Museum of Art presents Joan Belmar: Way Stations
DESCRIPTION:WAY STATIONS: JOAN BELMAR\nSeptember 13 – December 21\, 2019 \nWay Stations features a stunning assortment of new abstract paintings by New York-based artist Joan Belmar. Spherical forms\, often filled with transparent textural passages\, populate Belmar’s compositions and are often combined with segmented lines\, dots\, and portal-like constructions. “Circles represent the infinite”\, says Belmar\, adding that they “suggest\, like a Russian doll that contains one inside the other\, world or way stations within other worlds.” \nBelmar offers multiple vantage points and structures in his compositions. It’s as if we are looking at surface topographies of unnamed planets through a telescope\, or perhaps glancing down at outstretched maps to plot routes through unknown terrain. A focal point of the exhibition is an expansive wall showcasing two tondo paintings\, each 92 inches in diameter\, which were created especially for the UMMA exhibition. These circular works highlight the collage-like approach and layering seen in many of the artist’s compositions—solid blocks and bands of bold color share space with spherical forms that have a pattern overlay of hand-painted dots. \nBelmar was born in Chile and immigrated to the United States in 1999. His works are in the collections of the Microsoft Corporation\, Capital One Corporation\, and Fidelity Investment\, among others. \n
