O obrazie
Pat Steir painted July Night in 1994–1995. The work belongs to the Minneapolis Institute of Art in Minneapolis. It forms part of her waterfall or veil paintings, which evoke nature without reproducing a particular view of water or sky. Here layered colour suggests the depth of a night sky. Steir allows gravity and chance to influence the image as she works. She lets colour pour onto the canvas from a brush or can, building overlapping splashes and thin curtains that resemble air or water.
Opis muzeum
July Night is an example of Pat Steir’s signature waterfall, or veil paintings. In order to create these works, Steir pours the thin “veils” of paint from a can or brush onto the surface of her canvas, allowing gravity and the chaos of nature to manipulate the paint and form a picture. The effect of this layering and splashing of veils of paint is an image that resembles air or water. The results are not an exact replication of a sky or waterscape, but rather the idea of nature. Steir has created the depth of the night sky through her layering and splashing of paint, allowing the forces of gravity and chance to form an image. Both the act of creating and viewing the painting can be meditative, and even sublime.
