Lyrical Expressionist Paintings - By Bernard Re, Jr.

Show Index: Millerton, New York

Lyrical Expressionist
Bernard Re, Jr.

Style

My lyrical expressionist linear style in the nineteen-seventies related to the energy and DNA strands that wove images onto canvas. In the eighties the lines represented the organic interrelationship between humans, nature, light and darkness all seeking some semblance of balance. My most recent paintings have taken on the nature and size of an icon that symbolize mental and spiritual pictures of real and fantastic places, people, politics and concepts.
