Famous Art Dealer Jimmy D Robinson Selling Paul Jenkins: Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate
World-renowned art dealer and collector Jimmy D Robinson, also known for his work as a prolific poet, lyricist, and music producer, has put a rare Paul Jenkins painting on the market for sale. The extraordinary Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate was created while Jenkins was on an extended stay in the Caribbean. Impasto, scraping and bold strokes of color began to appear in lieu of pouring in his work.
Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate (1980), is one of a few pivotal and key paintings in which Jenkins employed the scraped veils with prismatic concentration and developed this new style of working. The artist uses thick paint to reveal and break down the persistent features of the Newtonian prism. Zen Buddhism and the writings of Carl Jung have always influenced the transcendental directions of his work as is evident in many of his titles. Buddhism suggests that, "the path to enlightenment wasn’t through intellectual reasoning but through self-realization". Jenkins' paintings are a method of reaching inner peace and an unconscious state of understanding the world.
“I adore all of Jenkin’s work and connect with him on so many creative and intuitive levels,” states Jimmy D Robinson, President of Jimmy D Robinson, Inc. “Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate is definitely in my top list of favorite art pieces and I shall miss it terribly when it is placed in a new home.”
Paul Jenkins is an American artist whose paintings represent the inventiveness of American's post World War II Abstract Expressionist movement by employing a unique style of paint application on canvas and paper.
Jenkin’s Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate elicits a sense of emotion coupled with a dynamic energy though progressive color transitions and gestural object placement. This work was completed and titled to mark a crossroad in his work, a change in the direction of his style and an alternate way of expression which has placed Paul Jenkins paintings in their rightful place with the great masters of non- objective action painting.
The Paul Jenkins’ Phenomena – Cross Wind Alternate painting measures 76 x 67 inches and is currently valued at $168,000.
