About the Item
Tony Khawam is an established contemporary artist known for his figurative abstract work, and a technique based on accumulative singular strokes or lines in a chaotic but controlled approach. . He holds Bachelor’ degree in fine art (BFA) from the School of Visual Arts in New York, NY, and master (MFA) from Montclair State university, NJ. He has exhibited in galleries throughout the U.S. Europe, and the Middle East.
Khawam’s work in the Nineties explores the formal concerns of line, shape, light, color, and collage while embracing the complex and broad spectrum of human emotion in his semi-autobiographical paintings. His work is characterized by its layered formal, material, and conceptual complexity of a grid like gestural composition in a more experimental, spontaneous working process.
Marrying a skewed perspective with dimensional flatness, Khawam’s paintings allude to the Cubist movement that defined the early twentieth century. The artist also offers up a delicate balance between figuration and abstraction, mirroring the real and unreal ways in which he renders lived experience. Moreover, his myriad mediums (including, acrylic, oil sticks, colored pastel, and paper) further support these dichotomies as the image becomes simultaneously flattened and fractured by referencing painterly collage. Khawam explains, “the goal is to create a harmonious image overall pattern through tension building on the American Expressionist experience”.
Khawam’s work is in museums, corporate and private collections in the Americas, Europe and the Middle East, and has been published and interviewed by various art magazines and media outlets.
