“Nothing in nature is ever the same: the skies, the waves, the land, and the colours. 
     Kate Beck’s painting is reminiscent of the pigment sculptures by Anish Kapoor (b.1954), subtle poetic works with fragile skin and infinite depth of color.  Descent into Limbo (1992), an unfathomable deep chasm of dark blue pigment, is part of the Kapoor collection at the De Pont Museum in Tilburg. "

ABOUT

Over several decades, Kate Beck has developed a practice founded in principles and methodologies of drawing, Form, Structure, and spatial studies, creating evocative works driven by personal recollection and universal considerations of human, nature, and wildlife ecologies. her Recent painting progressively intensifies collective mark and color, and considerations of the visual force of painting as both image and object.                                                                           __________  
With exhibition experience in the United States, Great Britain, Germany, France, Portugal, The Netherlands, and Italy, Beck is a recipient of support grants from the Adolph & Esther Gottlieb Foundation and the Foundation for Contemporary Arts in New York. She is a fellow of the BAU Institute, New York and Italy, and her works are commissioned and collected publicly and privately, including the Raum Schroth collection at  Stiftung Konzeptuelle Kunst, Soest, Germany. 
Kate Beck is an American painter and writer.
