It isn’t easy to make a good abstract painting. Joan Mitchell (1925–1992), one of the most innovative contributors ever to the language of abstraction, memorably told the art historian Irving Sandler in 1957 that “there is no one way to paint; there is no single answer.” When it comes to abstract painting, the proof of that observation lies in the many different modes of expression the artists who helped create the genre developed, from Jackson Pollock’s frenetic, paint-flinging confections to Ellsworth Kelly’s irregularly shaped, solid-color canvases. In terms of how it looks, what it has to say and how it says it, with its intended or implied meanings ranging from the ambiguous to the sublime, abstract painting has long been and still can be almost anything an artist wants it to be.

Elisabeth Condon is a painter and
scroll aficionado, whose work re-interprets Chinese principles of
balance for an information-saturated world. A Los Angeles native
now based in New York, Condon was a
tenured professor at the University of South Florida, Tampa from
2003-14. Florida's landscape catapulted Condon's memory to 1960s
Los Angeles and the overlay of past and present time inspired
travel to China to research scrolls. A sense of place pervades
Condon’s work, whether a current or remembered location to
current paintings of bird and flower patterns that
fuse decorative harmony with feminist assertion.
Recipient of the 2015 New York Pulse Prize for the
work she created during a six-month residency at the Swatch Art
Peace Hotel Shanghai, Condon’s awards and
fellowships include a Hanban Confucius
Institute Understanding China Fellowship,
a Pollock Krasner Foundation Grant,
Florida Individual Artist Grant and numerous University
research grants. Among Condon’s artist residencies are Wave Hill's
2017 Winter Workspace, National Parks residencies in the Florida
Everglades (AIRIE), Grand Canyon’s South Rim and Wupatki Natiional
Monument, Morris Graves Foundation, Yaddo and
Fountainhead.
Condon's work is held in public collections including the US Embassy Beijing, Perez Art Museum Miami, Tampa Museum of Art, the JP Morgan/ Chase Collection and numerous private collections around the world.
