Profile Joyce Pommer was born in 1952 in Quincy, Massachusetts and has studied at The Academy of Art College in San Francisco, The Art Institute of Boston and the Art Students League in New York City. She has exhibited widely in solo and group shows in New York and across the country and her work is in numerous private collections. A painting of hers was selected for the "Works on Paper" exhibition at the Mills Pond House Gallery in St. James, NY, juried by Colta Ives, Curator of the Dept. of Prints and Drawings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Her colorful abstract mixed media paintings originate from a spontaneous process using oil and different papers collaged onto surfaces of canvas, metal or wood. She creates depth and movement using the color and different materials in the space. Each completed vision portrays a sensitivity and fragility along with a strong visual image. New works include oils on paper using a unique process to produce intriguing abstract designs. Joyce is a member of the National Association of Women Artists and The Surface Design Association. She lives and works in New York City and is the owner of Franklin 54 Gallery, 181 Christopher St., in the West Village, NYC, open Wed-Sat 11-6, Sun 12-5. Praise for Joyce Pommer “Joyce Pommer's exuberant paintings also combine paper and paint in dynamic, free flowing movements that express beauty and happiness. The artist works with a collage of diverse papers onto the surface of canvas or board and spontaneously invents with color both additive and subtractive to complete her painting. Emotional memories of her personal journeys interface with the materials and process to unify and create the individual work. Both large and small scale works brighten up a winter display with a fauvist palette of dramatic color.” Dorothy Cochran, Director, The Galleries at the Interchurch Center, NYC
