Scott WIXON
Lives in New York City and grew up on Cape Cod. A museum professional, Wixon has traveled extensively and sampled the art and culture of the world. All of these influences and passions have informed and affected his work. He has exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Guggenheim Museum. He has artworks in the Guggenheim Museum permanent collection. Scott earned his MFA from Yale. All kinds of abstract elements crowd Mr. Wixon’s canvases Puzzling together biomorphic, expressionistic, geological, spacey and funky forms in confectionery colors, he creates dense jazzy improvisations of infectiously playful freedom. Ken Johnson, New York Times. Scott Wixon likes colors quite as astounding and full of impact as the color field painters of the 1960's, but he puts them into amorphous and undulating shapes that are totally disarming, Newsday.
