Alexander Yulish works within an unfolding narrative of improvisation and abstraction in paintings that convey the inner psychology of both human and external forms. Working predominantly in large scale formats, Yulish utilizes a direct, impasto brush, building irregular shapes layer by layer into gestural, complex color arrangements in order to reveal abstract figurative forms.
Alexander Yulish studied fine art at Connecticut College and has been featured in numerous solo shows. His work is included in the collection of Museo Jumex, Mexico City and he is currently represented by ACE Gallery, Los Angeles.
