Field Notes:

Opaque fields meet along sloping edges so paint reads as weighed volume rather than image

Defining Moment:

The modestly scaled panels where careful intervals of hue and gap create a slow gravitational pull

Suzan Frecon

(

1941–

)

su-zan freck-on

Frecon built a world where form balances like tuned chords — curved planes, dense pigments, and measured intervals.

Her paintings clarify stillness through chromatic weight.

Structural Focus

Reduction with Atmosphere

Form is reduced without becoming cold or purely rational. Minimal means are used to produce calm, resonance, or emotional density.

In Suzan Frecon’s work, this approach appears where color exists as atmospheric condition.

Chromatic Fields

Color fields operate as spatial and structural organizers.

Systems of Clarity

Order and coherence arise through disciplined systems and constraints.

Atmosphere

Atmosphere accumulates through calibrated light, tone, and spatial pacing.

Material

Material behavior governs form through weight, resistance, and constraint.

Proportion

Proportion organizes coherence through measured intervals, scale, and relation.

Art

Form operates as a site for material, perceptual, and conceptual inquiry.

Abstraction

Visual structure is distilled into autonomous, non-representational form.
