Description
TERRY HAGGERTY (London, 1970). "Stroke, New York, 2008. Acrylic on canvas. Signed, dated, located and titled on the back. Size: 183 x 164 cm. Terry Haggerty's paintings combine in a novel way the phenomenological approaches of Op Art and Minimalism. In them he intersperses monochrome lines which, in counterpoint with the white and through a soft curvature, create the illusory perception of three-dimensionality, achieving the sensation of volume and depth. Technically, his production stands out for the precision of his manual work, with measured, meticulous and calibrated forms. Following the artist's own statements about his works exhibited at the Ivorypress space in Madrid, "I focus a lot on space and deceive the viewer; I try to make him struggle to maintain the horizontality of the object and end up accepting that a piece that seems to be folded on itself and floating in the air is in reality a flat element made of wood", Trained at Cheltenham School of Art, Terry Haggerty has a long-standing reputation. He has exhibited widely in galleries and museums around the world, including Sikkema Jenkins, New York; Max Hetzler, Berlin; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Aldrich Museum, Connecticut; and PS1, Long Island City. His commissions include wall drawings for Dallas Cowboys Stadium, Munich Re, London, and private collections in the United States and Germany. Haggerty has also received several awards, including the For-Site foundation Award (2009), the John Anson Kittredge Award (2003) and the Natwest Art Prize (1999). He is currently represented in the following collections: Collection Charles Schwab & Co, Inc Corporate Headquarters, San Francisco, CA Collection Hoofddorp cultural center, Haarlemmermeer, The Netherlands Collection KKR, Menlo Park, CA Munich Re Art Collection, London, United Kingdom Collection Paul & Stacy Jacobs, San Diego, CA Sammlung Haubrok, Düsseldorf, Germany The Art Collection Cowboys Stadium, Arlington, TX Haggerty currently lives and works in Berlin.
