Lynne Bernbaum, a U.S. born and Anguilla based Modernist Artist, has just unveiled her latest collection, titled Paint Paint in her small gallery in Anguilla-the Lynne Bernbaum Art Studio. The collection goes on exhibit in the US in later 2009 and throughout 2010. Paint Paint is “a series of vivid still lifes of paint freshly squeezed from the tube with sensuous shapes, argent light, and shadows making up the composition.”
“I realized that Paint Paint is a sign of the times and we have to get back to some basics, simplify, use (and don’t abuse) your resources,” said Bernbaum. “When asked, I was saying that I am painting something new, nothing to do with the Caribbean and now I see that it does. It is raw, just straight raw paint, nothing else,” she continued. “As in the Caribbean, all is raw. Very real and a more natural existence, raw exposed emotions with nowhere to hide. I am speaking about living in the islands, not vacationing there.”
Bernbaum settled in the Caribbean about 20 years ago and her work has long been associated with Caribbean themes.
