"Meander, galerij bed" by Jim Yale
Oil on Masonite Panel
40’’ by 30’’
$3,500
Jim Yale’s multi-disciplinary visual work is a meditation on the random combinations of color, message, language, and form found in everyday life.
Yale’s figurative painting and drawing work pulls inspiration from Matisse, Cézanne, Die Brücke, and the figurative art of the Bay Area in the 1950s and 60s. Figures are often alone, sometimes in an undefined space. Gesture takes precedence over realism. The figure is sometimes merely an assemblage of flat planes of color. Natural body language is the lingua franca; beauty is found in the turn of a head, a bend of a wrist or ankle, a shoulder half in shadow.
Jim Yale received his BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
His work is in private collections in North America, South America, Europe, and the United Kingdom.
He paints at his studio in Chicago.
