Alan Paine Radebaugh, a contemporary American artist, was born May 2, 1952 in Boston, Massachusetts, raised in Maine and New York, and moved to New Mexico in 1979. He grew up painting, primarily in oils. At the College of Wooster, where he enrolled to study premed, he spent his time taking photographs and designing jewelry. He left Wooster to become a jeweler, later spent ten years designing sculptural art furniture,〔''Fine Wood Working'', Taunton Press, March/April 1983, back cover.〕 and returned to painting full-time in 1988.〔Stuart Ashman, ed., ''Abstract Art New Mexico'' (Albuquerque: Fresco Fine Art, 2003), 152.〕 Radebaugh's work has been shown in museums and galleries in the United States and abroad. In 2004, he had a 20-year retrospective, ''Alan Paine Radebaugh: Chasing Fragments 1984–2004'', in Albuquerque, NM.〔Douglas Kent Hall, ''Mass: Of Our World'' (Albuquerque: Radebaugh Fine Art, 2008), 11.〕 In 2007 Mass: Of Our World, exhibited at the Jonson Gallery of the University of New Mexico Art Museum, won an award for excellence in fine arts.〔Robert Ware, ''Mass: Of Our World'' (Albuquerque: Jonson Gallery, University of New Mexico Art Museum, 2007).〕 His artworks are housed in the collections of corporations and cultural institutions including Albuquerque Museum; New Mexico Museum of Fine Arts, Santa Fe; Ohio State University–Shisler Center, Wooster, Ohio; Portland Museum of Art, Portland, Maine; Roswell Museum and Art Center, New Mexico; The College of Wooster, Ohio; and University of New Mexico Art Museum.〔Robert Ware, ''Mass: Of Our World'' (Albuquerque: Jonson Gallery, University of New Mexico Art Museum, 2007).〕 ==Analysis of Work== David L. Bell, writing about Radebaugh's sculptural furniture, noted that it has "acute proportion, impeccable detailing."〔''Fine Wood Working'', Taunton Press, March/April 1983, back cover.〕 Writing about New Mexico landscape artists, critic Wesley Pulkka commented, "Dappled by sunlight and rough textured as tree bark, Radebaugh's surfaces celebrate nature like a Gerard Manley Hopkins poem."〔Wesley Pulkka, "Southwestern Landscapes: NM Artists," ''Collector's Guide'' 19, no. 1 (2005): 212.〕 In a later analysis of Radebaugh's work, Douglas Kent Hall wrote, "Radebaugh is clearly a landscape painter. Yet, he is a landscape painter of a very different kind…. To a certain degree Radebaugh is doing what Jackson Pollock did as an artist….Radebaugh, too, is an action painter….The action he presents is in slow motion, few drips, if any, but plenty of gesture. The painting is what he creates….If Pollack and others from the abstract expressionist school freed line and form from their traditional roles in painting, Radebaugh has responded to their spontaneity and extended it with his almost self-conscious linear detailing."〔Douglas Kent Hall, Mass: Of Our World (Albuquerque: Radebaugh Fine Art, 2008), 8.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alan Paine Radebaugh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
