Kenworth Moffett on Zino Pece
"In the last two years, the British painter, Zino Pece, has become one of the handful of painters who I think of as at the cutting edge of modern abstraction. Following in the footsteps of Jackson Pollock and Morris Louis, he orchestrates improvisational paint pouring on a large scale. Unlike his forebearers, he is able to exploit the unique properties of the new water based polymer paints to achieve the freedom and fluidity which he craves. Pece’s pictures freeze a spontaneous, yet perfect moment in the flow of paint."
Art critic Kenworth Moffett was curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. He has organised numerous exhibitions and written monographs on several artists including Kenneth Noland and Morris Louis.
