About
Why this artist matters now
Vivian Suter is an Argentine painter based in Basel whose work combines gestural abstraction with observed landscape and domestic space. Working primarily in acrylic and mixed media on canvas, her paintings layer translucent washes of color with marks that suggest both accident and intention, creating surfaces that shift between figuration and pure abstraction. Represented by Gladstone Gallery, Suter's practice explores the relationship between spontaneity and control, drawing on decades of engagement with color as a primary vehicle for spatial and emotional expression.
