ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Subdivided Landscape 2 is a painting composed of seven separate panels each of which is 48 inches by 8 inches. Helen Harrison wrote in The New York Times: "The painter Edward Joseph cuts out sections of landscape, forcing the vista into a vertical format. This contradictory presentation negates the horizon, pulling the eye up toward the sky and down toward the fore- ground, which is usually water. Land tends to appear as a brief but significant punctuation mark, like a dash between two statements. Mister Joseph’s largest work, Subdivided Landscape, is a seven- canvas composition in which the view is interrupted by regular bars of negative space. Apart from its intriguing visual effect, the painting also has a symbolic dimension, suggesting the carving up that changes land into real estate. The artist often imposes understated commentary on his highly formalized and apparently timeless scenes, and one feels that human impact, while not catastrophic, is an implicit threat." Susan Bridson wrote in The Three Village Harold: "Edward Joseph’s Subdivided Landscape 2 (Grey Day) captures you at first glance and wins you forever in the next second. It is 98 percent cloud- scape. But don’t underestimate the landscape with its dark evergreens and coppery sea grasses, brilliant in the sun. As for the sky: Great billows of backlit clouds are dark-rimmed or bright, alive with movement. Mr. Joseph cannily presents Gray Day in seven sections- which emphasizes its power. This is too good to miss."

Edward Joseph
United States
East Hampton artist Edward Joseph was born in Brooklyn, NY and attended Pratt Institute. He currently resides in the Napeague dunes in Amagansett. He has been a dedicated artist for over fifty years. He has in that time exhibited his work in many of the most prominent venues on Long Island including The Elaine Benson Gallery (Bridgehampton, NY), The Whitney Artworks (Greenport, NY), Gallery North (Setauket, NY), The Islip Art Museum (Islip, NY), The Firehouse Gallery at Nassau Community College (Garden City, NY), The Parrish Art Museum (Southampton, NY),The Anthony Giordano Gallery at Dowling College (Oakdale, NY), The Chase Edwards Gallery (Bridgehampton, NY) and The University Gallery (SUNY Stony Brook, NY) as well as shows at Plymouth State College (Plymouth, NH), The Culinary Institute of America (Hyde Park, NY), Excel Fine Arts (New York, NY), and The Homestead Gallery (New York, NY). Edward's work is influenced by his love of the outdoors. He is particularly drawn to scenes of secluded and pristine shoreline, wetlands and dunes that are unblemished by mankind. Edward sometimes aims to elicit the portent of imminent intrusion and contamination of these ideal glimpses of nature. This subtle foreboding, masterfully conveyed, protests the almost inevitable desecration mankind is sure to wreck in its insatiable appetite for space. In other pieces Edward beautifully captures the lush softness and reflective tranquility to be found in remote wetlands and the dunes of the pine barrens of Eastern Long Island. In these works Edward is particularly skilled at depicting the reflections and lushness where water and land meet. Another striking visual effect of Edward's work is his method of surrounding these fragile ecosystems with what seems like an infinity of time and space reminding us of our ultimate smallness in this vast universe. These pieces bring us with the painter as he experiences these intimate slices of nature not readily accessible to most of us. His most recent works depict the dunes of East Hampton.
