Her works of the 50s became looser and more gestural\, a direction that intensified through the early 80s. Though the artist stated that narrative was a distraction and had no place in painting\, in the mid-80s Passlof began to incorporate figurative representations\, often landscapes populated with images of centaurs\, nymphs and horses. Allusions to the grid and geometry also emerged through repetition\, patterns and marks in her large compositions. Passlof’s varied works defy easy categorization\, with a palette that ranged from dark colors and earth tones to soft pastel\, but all are connected through her ability to capture the spontaneity and sensuousness of paint through her intuitive\, physically vigorous\, and eloquent brush marks. \nThe artist immersed herself equally in teaching\, and independent curator and critic Karen Wilkin writes in the catalogue: “Passlof plainly followed the advice she gave to her students: ‘…push back the limits – be willing to risk or sacrifice what you have – throw the cards to the winds and see where they come down. Look for new and unexpected combinations.’” \nThis event is intended for active Members of the Parrish Contemporaries Circle and invited guests.  Not a Member?  Join today! \nThis event is organized by the Parrish Contemporaries Circle Committee\, a volunteer group of Members committed to providing exciting and special experiences for fellow Parrish Art Museum supporters who consider themselves emerging collectors and art lovers. \n
