augsburg contemporary
Current: Mark Harrington "Old and new dreams" | 15.3.-18.4.2026
The installation by
Mark Harrington at
augsburg contemporary is an opportunity to present a conversation between large-scale paintings made in Norway and Germany during the past thirty years. Below you will find more images from the American artist's 30-year creative period.
"Diptychs and multi-panel polyptych structures have long recurred in my work, elements of asymmetry and contrast finding unity. Paintings of the Nineties, made with oil and gesso, were scored with a multitude of narrow lines. The engraved gesso was saturated with pigment and oil, gaining tonal contrast within the grooved plane. Drying time imposed limits on physically drawing into the surface, a strategy for building the ground that has persisted into the present. My decision in 2000 to use acrylic materials discovered new dynamics between drawing and the field of the painting. A more open surface area, and expansion of lines as multi-tonal veins of color, increased the possibilities for a language of linearity in pictorial space". Artist statement Mark Harrington
