The Garden Paintings, with essay by Kevin Consey

2011

Back

The Garden Paintings, a collection of abstract works from the ‘90s, is a testament to his late painting and the chemistry of color that was its hallmark. As Vicente entered the final years of his long and accomplished life, he drew inspiration from the ambrosial hues of his garden in Bridgehampton, close at hand and not more than a few steps from his studio door. This exhibition speaks to the way in which Vicente’s formal training and independent creative vision would ultimately come together to inform his painting.
