Stanley Boxer & Joyce Weinstein

About the Artists
Stanley Boxer (1926 - 2000) was an American artist best known for thickly painted abstract works of art. He was also an accomplished sculptor and printmaker. Trained post-World War II at the famed Arts Students League, Boxer, like many of his generation moved toward abstract non-objective painting. At one point he caught the eye of renowned 20^th century art critic Clement Greenberg, and was lumped in with the "Color Field" painters whom Greenberg championed.  Boxer himself adamantly rejected this stylistic label, however over the years he became known for a materially dense abstract style.

A respected veteran of the New York Abstract Expressionist explosion of the 1950’s, Joyce Weinstein continues to paint vibrant works in her Upstate studio. Although her paintings are abstract, Weinstein says she paints what she sees around her. The sources she draws from are elements of the beautiful countryside like the “rolling hills, mountains and distant views, and the ever changing sky.” Add to that the “nearby fields, woods and streams, old barns, haystacks, weeds and flowers – everything.” Her work often employs a somewhat calligraphic symbolism.
