Sobre el Artista

Frank Mann is based in New York, where he maintains a studio near Turtle Bay on the Eastside of Midtown Manhattan. He has exhibited regularly in New York as well as in Europe and his paintings are included in public and private collections in the United States, in Asia, and in Europe. He currently creates abstract oil paintings of buoyant soft-edged forms that reflect his interest in vision and visual perception. His emphasis on esthetic experience has yielded work that is decidedly essentialist. He worked as a studio assistant to Dorothea Rockburne. In the course of Mann’s extensive working history, divided roughly into six parts, he took a more figural direction in the anomalous series Second Nature. His work was first exhibited in New York at Franklin Furnace and Artists Space.
