Reza Bangiz is a professional painter and university art instructor with more than fifty-five years of experience. Born in 1937 and was largely inspired creatively by the 1950s Abstract Expressionism, a form of painting that studied notions of spirituality and the sublime, dominated the 1950s. During Abstract Expressionism, many artists concentrated on the formal properties of painting, and action painting was influenced by the political freedom of the United States, as opposed to the strict strictures of the Soviet bloc. Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Frank Kline, Barnett Newman, Clyfford Still and Adolph Gottlieb were predominant artists of this period. The male dominated environment has been subsequently revised to acknowledge the contributions of female artists such as Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, and Louise Bourgeois, amongst others. In relation to Bangiz’ own practice, his technique includes a mixture of linocut and painting, developed personally through his years of experience.
