# Monique van Genderen URL: https://vielmetter.com/artists/monique-van-genderen/ Represented by Vielmetter Los Angeles Monique van Genderen creates luscious, colorful abstract paintings on canvas as well as directly on the wall in large-scale painting installations. The history of abstraction and how it relates to contemporary graphic design and computer-generated images also inspires her. Van Genderen describes herself as a non-objective abstractionist, meaning she creates her own painterly language that is concerned with surface, finish, and continued interventions within the subject of painting. Her works often suggest an abstracted landscape due to the breadth of field, biomorphic forms, and interplay of colors and shapes. Van Genderen creates self-consciously aesthetic abstraction, painting large faux brushstrokes and exaggerated drips. The lyrical brushstrokes become symbols of abstract painting, referencing yet again the language of abstraction. Van Genderen examines the objecthood of paintings by creating installations of paintings that reside in and respond to their architectural environments. She responds to the architecture in a collaborative way, leading to a seamlessly organic relationship between the walls, the floor, and the canvases. Her paintings, often occupying the wall from the edge of the floor to the edge of the ceiling, are vertical compositions that emphasize the horizontality of the floor and simultaneously her interest in relating her work to the space in which it occupies. **Monique van Genderen** (b. 1965 in Vancouver, Canada) lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. She received her MFA from the California Institute of the Arts and her BFA from the University of California at San Diego. Van Genderen has had several solo exhibitions at Vielmetter Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA; Miles McEnery Gallery, New York, NY; Quint Gallery, La Jolla, CA; Galerie Richard, Paris, France; Galerie Michael Janssen, Berlin, Germany and R.B. Stevenson Gallery, La Jolla, CA among others.
