Christian Maychack

CHRISTIAN MAYCHACK’S current work focuses on the manner in which we have become adept at navigating the continuum between physical space and abstract mental space. Using the language of abstract painting and the modernist grid, the pieces reflect into an illusionistic space without fully relinquishing their sense of physicality. What results is a slow oscillation between different modes of interfacing with an object. Born in Troy, NY, Maychack received a BFA from Ohio University and an MFA from San Francisco State University. In 2008, he attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Maychack is a 2012 fellow in Painting from the New York Foundation for the Arts. christianmaychack.com
