RICHARD TINKLER

Richard Tinkler’s (b. 1975, Westminster, USA) paintings and drawings reflect an approach that is instinctual and labor intensive. His intricately layered pieces are simultaneously rigidly structured and hallucinatory. In these paintings, the surface resembles snake skin or fish scales, composed of meticulous small brushstrokes with subtle color gradations, that evoke Impressionist painting both in form and subject matter. Reminiscent of a landscape seen through its reflection in water or a kaleidoscope, figures emerge from their environment or dissolve into it, exploring a mode of abstraction which situates itself in the interchangeability between figure and field.
 

Tinkler received a BA in 1999 from the University of North Texas, and an MFA in 2003 from Hunter College, New York. His work has been shown at numerous galleries, including 56 Henry (New York, NY), Albert Merola Gallery (Provinc- etown, MA), LaMontagne Gallery (Boston, MA), Halsey McKay Gallery (East Hampton, NY), and Sebastian Gladstone (Los Angeles, CA). Richard Tinkler ha been included in group shows at Fiebach, Minninger (Cologne, Germany) The Drawing Center (New York), Anton Kern Gallery (New York), Thaddeus Ropac (Salzburg, Austria - París, France), Can- ada (New York) and at the Marmotti collection (Reggio Emilia, Italy). Richard Tinkler is represented by 56 Henry, New York. Cecilia De Nisco & Richard Tinkler: Field Trip, the inaugural show at Villa Magdalena’s new space in Madrid alongside Cecilia De Nisco, will mark the first time the artist exhibits in Spain.
