MONOPRINTS BY MARGARET-ANN CLEMENTE

Margaret-Ann Clemente - Monoprints
Margaret-Ann Clemente's acrylic and mixed medium monoprints are created with fine archival quality materials. Each is printed on paper, trimmed and attached to a paper backing and signed and dated by Margaret-Ann. A few of them are framed in a simple style but the majority are not framed, providing you the freedom to determine your choice of framing options with your local framer.

MARGARET-ANN:

In 1992, Margaret-Ann Clemente established herself as a full-time printmaker and painter, creating Art for the Planet studios. Until 9/11/2001, she pursued themes inspired by animals from the North American continent and those from her native France and Sicilian heritage.

Responding to subsequent global events, her work evolved into an abstract style called Internal Expressionism that centers upon color interaction, texture and minimalism. These have become her trademarks as well as unusual media—a witness to her constant experimentation and push beyond known boundaries in executing her prints. Metal leaf, wax media, crystalline particulates, sand, pumice and glass beads have joined the acrylics, latex house paints, glazes, dry pigments and clay paints previously found in her paintings.

Late in 2008, Clemente began researching symbols used in Paleolithic epochs. Her works include marks from the Aurignacian period of the Upper Paleolithic, which lasted from approximately 40,000 years to 26,000 years ago in Europe and Southeast Asia. The spiral, chevron, wavy line, rectangle, square, triangle, meander, dot and circle were part of a vocabulary humans used to communicate, identify and enhance their lives. Clemente felt called to incorporate these images into her compositions and is adapting them in print form for the general public as an act of honoring those who came before us. Clemente’s prints and paintings can be found in private and corporate collections throughout the US and Europe. She has taught printmaking, painting, drawing, and professional practice workshops for groups of all ages in the Bay Area and continues to do so in her studio.
