Andrew Schwartz is a painter based in New York City. His work plays with the formal, material, and perceptual possibilities of abstract visual language through a process-based painting approach. While at NES, Andrew is developing a new body of work on paper that refers directly to the landscape and unusual light environments of Iceland, relating the painterly gesture to the movement of weather systems and natural forces.
