About the Artist: Kathleen Migliore-Newton

Abstract(summary):

Migliore-Newton draws on the resources of neighborhoods, literary references from such writers as E. B. White and Walter Benjamin, and an eighteen-year experience of teaching English as a second language to adults for the Department of Education in NYC. Her art, filled with both real and invented people as subject matter, captures acts of contemplation, waiting, and movement. These characters are often oblivious to being watched, and yet our eye contact with them as a spectator ignites common bonds. Photographs serve as inspiration for the artist’s canvases. Perhaps this interplay of line and form traces paths of convergence in which people meet and separate. It is at this point of encounter that imagination becomes stirred, sparking curiosity about the lives we see and pass by. Kathleen Migliore-Newton’s painting centers on that moment in arcades, public transportation, galleries, and ballet classes, documenting the urban experience. Her work paradoxically conveys a sense of the solitude and alienation that one can feel in a big metropolis as well as the phenomenon of being part of a totality.
