This catalogue contextualizes the painting of American artist Terry Winters (born 1949) within the scientific collections of Universalmuseum Joanneum in Graz, Austria. Winters’ abstract paintings, which often resemble cells, spores and seeds, explore biological processes, mathematical fields and information technologies.
Published by Corbett vs. Dempsey. Text by John Corbett, Jim Dempsey, Terry Winters.
Since the 1980s, New York–born Terry Winters (born 1949) has been one of the foremost American painters, enjoying equal renown for both his prints and drawings. Published to accompany his show at Corbett vs. Dempsey, The Pencil of Nature covers drawings Winters created between 2006 and 2014, ranging from small-scale, heavily worked graphite drawings to large ones incorporating charcoal, ink and gouache. One suite titled Difference Surface involves 20 related panels, each one juxtaposing pattern against pattern, creating augmentations and interferences where broken symmetries are pushed into a new, wondrous realm. With their shimmering black surfaces, cellular forms and stretched nets, these drawings reach deep into the act of mark-making. This volume features all works included in the exhibition and a selection of collages, as well as fragments from an ongoing dialogue between Winters, Corbett and Dempsey on drawing and improvisation.

Featuring 21 new paintings, all illustrated in full color, this catalogue highlights Terry Winters’ (born 1949) unique layering of visual information and his signature use of color. Winters describes how he composes his paintings: "The process is pushed and pulled until there’s an image—a material process and an optical likeness."

Terry Winters: Patterns in a Chromatic Field unveils a new body of work by the celebrated abstract painter. With these 17 paintings, reproduced here for the first time, Winters (born 1949) further develops his research into the optical and psychological capacities of oil paint. His layering of color and form echoes the abstracting processes of contemporary science and technology, allowing each canvas to open up new avenues of perception and physical experience. As Suzanne Hudson explains in the book's essay, Winters' paintings are "wholly intended works, based not upon pre-existing matrices or a-compositional methods but on necessities that accumulate and progress as the painting is brought into being." Along with Hudson's essay, the book features extensive illustrations, including full-scale details of the canvases, as well as new photographs of the Winters studio in upstate New York.

Cricket Music, Tessellation Figures & Notebook presents a series of new works by acclaimed New York painter Terry Winters (born 1949), in which he explores forms inspired by mathematical concepts such as tessellations, knot theory and similar shapes derived from natural and scientific realms. Winters’ kaleidoscopic compositions of overlapping grids and patterns create complex pictorial spaces, and his use of transparent pigments allows the viewer to see, as the artist has said, “all the events that went into the making of the painting.” Tessellation Figures refers to the process of creating a two-dimensional plane through the repetition of a geometric shape. The Notebook series (2003–2011) consists of collages of found images, layered on top of one another, which have provided the source material for several of Winters’ recent paintings, and which affirm the enduring tension between abstraction and representation throughout his work.

Terry Winters (born 1949) belongs to a generation of artists who have taken painting beyond the constraints of Minimalism; his art seems to arise almost as a byproduct of independent natural or mechanical processes, which leave buzzing arrays of knots, grids, whorls, tangles and weaves in their wake. Following his investigations of the 1980s, which centered on depictions of botanical and biological processes, Winters now explores the more cerebral imagery of information technology in paintings and drawings that invoke networks and systems of modular forms and structures—themes that, in their hermeneutic openness, make his work particularly available for collaboration (Winters has recently worked with Trisha Brown and Rem Koolhaas). This sleekly designed survey of painting and drawing from the past ten years reproduces major series such as Set Diagram (2000), Turbulence Skins (2002), Local Group (2004) and Knotted Graphs (2008).

Published by Matthew Marks Gallery. Text by Kathryn A. Tuma.
New York-based artist Terry Winters is known for paintings, drawings and prints that oscillate between figuration and abstraction. Rooted in Minimalism, Winters' work reflects his career-long investment in the historical and contemporary stakes of painting, and references ambiguous forms sourced from the sciences, mathematics and architecture. These forms subtly suggest any number of objects--maps, blueprints, seeds, spores, shells, fungi, spiderwebs, X-rays, molecular structures, balls of yarn, fishing nets, tree branches, magnified crystals or neurological circuits--without actually depicting any of them directly, leaving the viewer's eye to wander restlessly throughout the picture plane. Winters has described his strategy: "So much of the contemporary world is driven by abstract processes... The old Modernist oppositions between the retinal and the intellectual just really don't function anymore."
Knotted Graphs presents a series of paintings and drawings made in 2007 and 2008 that further investigate the grid through mathematical principles such as knot theory.
Published by Pratt Exhibitions. Afterword by Francine Prose.
The first place the reader encounters text in this book of assertive graphite drawings is its next-to-last page. There's no title, no table of contents, and no introduction--it's all drawings from the front cover straight through to "Afterwords 101, A Short Answer Quiz" by Francine Prose. Prose rises to meet Winters's work with an homage that is art in itself, an unconventional, sweet, funny poem evoking the artist's symbol language and his ideas, and analyzing them even as it mocks that assignment. One question reads "By what signs are the following recognized?" The list, in order, is a blob, a lump, a smudge, a mistake, an intention, and an egg. It's both sharp and mysterious, and it's insightful enough to bring readers back to page one seeking answers.
