Art of Daniel James Brophy
Jul 14 2007, 11:51 AM EDT To get close with the paintings of Daniel Brophy, and closeness also include the external often unprotected space, we need first to get out of safety of our inner worlds and take a courage to look at them. The subject of his acrylics is only seemingly from this side of the hither polyvalence. The palette is expressionistic, and figures are succinct and clear, free of insisting in details and without grandeur of powerful and calming gestures. In these paintings there are also the intervals, intersections and inter-realities which open the space to an intuitive life and imaginary problems that are communicated the metaphoric way. It's certain that Daniel contrived creating sensible relations of his inner self with the world. With his emerging authentic artistic Self, Daniel envision some of the universal human paths and destinies that may lead to Father and God to the eternal light in the darkness (and the darkness in the light) over lifetime. Activating his artistic skills creative human-centric way and wisely applying "and-and" logic, Daniel virtuously escaped to get trapped by sterile zealotry, skipped over naive humanism and endowed us with the paintings that have soul. D. N. Benzion, 2004 3 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |
