Examining the geometry of pattern, repetition and colour within her
surroundings, British artist Tess Jaray has explored painterly
perspective since the 1960s. This comprehensive and richly
illustrated volume was produced in celebration of a 2014 exhibition
of paintings and prints by Jaray. Although her work is resolutely
abstract, Jaray's two-dimensional work and public art - both of
which celebrate the vitality inherent within archetypal rhythms and
patterns - have been informed by her interest in the spaces of
Italian Renaissance art and architecture, along with more
contemporary influences. Jaray focuses on producing the illusion of
space, using perspective to create a field of spatial paradox that
equates to distance and closeness in the mind. In many of her works
the area of pattern - whether polygons, waves or rectangles - is
contained by a strong, grounding background colour, thereby
controlling the movement of the forms. From Italian architecture
and Islamic mosaics to Kazimir Malevich and Lucio Fontana, this
volume situates the artist within the tradition of abstract
painting and the history of art. Featuring texts by fellow artists,
alongside illustrations of a large group of Jaray's paintings, this
first monograph explores her contemporary influence.
