Biography<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Born in 1984 in Lewiston, NY, Jacob Kassay lives and works in New York. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist challenges the traditional parameters of artmaking in conceptually driven installations that respond to and occupy their environment in unexpected ways. The arrangement of an exhibition and how his pieces interact with the surrounding architecture \u2013 and ultimately their audience \u2013 is key to understanding the essence of his work. Kassay\u2019s paintings interrelate and form multiple dialogues: with each other, with the space around them and with the viewer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The language of materials is important to Kassay, who pays great attention to form, surface and physicality. Although lacking marks that could be conceived as gestural, a close inspection of his seemingly blank or monotone paintings reveals traces of their making \u2013 small incidental marks, or burnt edges, for example. Jacob Kassay\u2019s practice also encompasses film and sculpture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Critic Alex Bacon has written that his work \u201cactively poses the question\u2014what does it mean to be represented?\u2026This kind of aesthetic activity is suspended somewhere between the \u201creal\u201d world that is reflected, and the particular aesthetic world a painting inhabits as an\u2026autonomous thing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His work is present, among others, in the following collections: Collezione Maramotti, Reggio Emilia, Italy; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; FRAC Poitou-Charentes, Angoul\u00eame, France; Albright Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, USA; Museo Di Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Rovereto, Italy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
