James Parsons Dalglish [3] (born 1947) is an American abstract painter. He lives and works in New York City. [2]
Jamie Dalglish was born in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania in 1947 [4] and served in the navy from 1967 to 1969 on a submarine in the Vietnam War. In the early 1970s, he attended the Art Academy of Cincinnati and Rhode Island School of Design, where he studied video art. When Dalglish first moved to New York City in May 1974, he was a housemate of fellow RISD student David Byrne, who would later gain fame as lead singer of the band Talking Heads and as a solo musical artist. [5] [6]
In 1975, Dalglish finished a video art project that consisted entirely of interviews with fifteen of his artist friends talking with Byrne — with Byrne offscreen the entire time doing most of the talking. The point of the video wasn't what Byrne said, but the body language of the listeners. The name of the seven-and-a-half-hour video was "Talking Heads, a 7.5 hr Conversation Installation." Participants in the video included Talking Heads drummer Chris Frantz, and artists Jeff Koons, Jeff Turtletaub, and Vito Acconci. [6] [7] [8] The video was exhibited in 1979 at The Kitchen in New York. [4] The full video appears to be lost, with only a few short excerpts having survived. [6]
In collaboration with guitarist and songwriter George Elliott, Dalglish created the short-lived rock performance group CONTAINER in 1979. The group consisted of a five-person band, with Dalglish as vocalist and lyricist, plus a 10-year-old female singer, dancers, and a film and video crew. A recording of their music has since been released on a CD. One of their songs, "Three Wishes", was recorded by Klaus Nomi on his 1982 album Simple Man . [9]
Dalglish began painting in the 1970s [10] and had his first art exhibition in 1979 in New York City. [4]
In the early 1990s, Dalglish originated the word "morphoglyph" to define his painting. He has explained that it "combines the word "morph", growing or changing forms (from Morpheus, the son of the god of sleep, the form of dreams) with the word "glyph", an incision or cryptograph – secret writing, the language of the soul. I think morphoglyphs provide abstract painting with a surface that seems to say, "art is the art of becoming art." [11] [12]
Dalglish received a 2006–2007 Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. [13] He has exhibited in galleries including OK Harris, Match artspace, [14] Barbara Braathen, and Florence Lynch. Dalglish's morphoglyphs have been cited by art writer Lee Klein, among the works of Jackson Pollock and David Reed, as part of the trans-filmic lead into the art of Hyper-texture. [15] He was included in the exhibition "I colori del rock," which ran in 2009, from January 29 through March 3, at Pavesi Fine Arts in Milan, Italy. [16]
Paul Jackson Pollock was an American painter. A major figure in the abstract expressionist movement, Pollock was widely noticed for his "drip technique" of pouring or splashing liquid household paint onto a horizontal surface, enabling him to view and paint his canvases from all angles. It was called all-over painting and action painting, since he covered the entire canvas and used the force of his whole body to paint, often in a frenetic dancing style. This extreme form of abstraction divided critics: some praised the immediacy of the creation, while others derided the random effects.
Action painting, sometimes called "gestural abstraction", is a style of painting in which paint is spontaneously dribbled, splashed or smeared onto the canvas, rather than being carefully applied. The resulting work often emphasizes the physical act of painting itself as an essential aspect of the finished work or concern of its artist.
Lenore "Lee" Krasner was an American painter and visual artist active primarily in New York whose work has been associated with the Abstract Expressionist movement. She received her early academic training at the Women's Art School of Cooper Union, and the National Academy of Design from 1928 to 1932. Krasner's exposure to Post-Impressionism at the newly opened Museum of Modern Art in 1929 led to a sustained interest in modern art. In 1937, she enrolled in classes taught by Hans Hofmann, which led her to integrate influences of Cubism into her paintings. During the Great Depression, Krasner joined the Works Progress Administration's Federal Art Project, transitioning to war propaganda artworks during the War Services era.

The gallery exhibited important modern art until it closed in 1947, when Guggenheim returned to Europe. The gallery was designed by architect, artist, and visionary Frederick Kiesler.

Irving Kriesberg was an American painter, sculptor, educator, author, and filmmaker, whose work combined elements of Abstract Expressionism with representational human, animal, and humanoid forms. Because Kriesberg blended formalist elements with figurative forms he is often considered to be a Figurative Expressionist.
Julian Burroughs Hatton III is an American landscape abstract artist from New York City. The New York Times has described his painting style as "vibrant, playful, semi-abstract landscapes" while New York Sun art critic John Goodrich compared him to French painter Bonnard. Hatton's abstract landscapes have also been compared to paintings by Arthur Dove and Georgia O'Keeffe because of his "unbridled love of pure, hot color". This love of colour has been likened to Gauguin and the Fauves, according to critic Ann Landi of ARTnews. Hatton's vision is of "a nature that you can literally eat with your eyes, eye candy transposed onto the entire world," according to critic Joel Silverstein.

In 1980, he opened Braathen-Gallozzi Fine Art with Barbara Braathen at 76 Duane Street in New York City and presented the first significant solo exhibition of Stan Peskett's installation art in 1981.
