REFINED LIVING STARTS WITH SMART DESIGN
Julie Wolfe is a multimedia artist whose work visualizes the diffuse, the immaterial, and the invisible. Synesthetic associations of color and shape demonstrate the slippage between different modes of communication, making meaning out of chance and play as well as deconstructing traditional aesthetic conventions.
Wolfe received her BFA in Painting and Art History in Texas in 1986. The artist has been reviewed in important national publications, namely ArtNews, The Washington Post, Hyperallergic and BBC World News America. Her works are collected by many private and public institutions, including the National Gallery of Art, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, New York Public Library and more. Wolfe lives and works in Washington, DC.

MULTIMEDIA ARTIST
Grosvenor has a long-standing history of supporting arts and culture in its communities with the aim to make public art more accessible and to celebrate the works of talented local artists. Through a commitment to improve communities and support the work of independent and local creators, Grosvenor commissioned three D.C.-based artists to complete a series of abstract works that are featured in the corridors at City Homes. Contemporary artists Julie Wolfe, Steven Cushner, and Caitlin Teal Price worked to capture the interwoven frameworks of daily life through their three original collections.

Steven Cushner
Incorporating dripping paint within repetitive strokes and pattern-like forms, Steven Cushner creates works both gestural and concrete. Fan-like, bulbous, or open-ended shapes vibrate with intensity as their thickly painted bands emerge from watery backgrounds. Whether the viewer correlates branches, signs, birds, or incomprehensible abstractions, the paintings all emanate an electric energy, a quirkiness separate from living things—perhaps conveying the root of Cushner’s passions and spontaneity.
Cushner is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and received his Master of Fine Arts in painting from the University of Maryland in 1980. He currently lives in Washington, DC, where he teaches at George Mason University. His work is included in numerous private and public collections, including the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and the Corcoran Gallery of Art.

MULTIMEDIA ARTIST
Spectrums of light, scrapings and etchings, and geometrical prisms radiate from the artistic renderings created by Caitlin Teal Price. Designed to sooth, her compositions achieve a tranquil effect throughout the common spaces. Her artistic technique masterfully brings together textures, lines, and color—almost giving the effect of movement, breath, or subtle magnetism as the strokes attract and repel each other. This deliberate application is what residents can expect to see when they walk out their front doors, or when they come home after a long day.

Caitlin Teal Price
MULTIMEDIA ARTIST
Incorporating dripping paint within repetitive strokes and pattern-like forms, Steven Cushner creates works both gestural and concrete. Playing with abstraction and representation, he presents various imagery inspired by everyday sights. Fan-like, bulbous, or open-ended shapes vibrate with intensity as their thickly painted bands emerge from watery backgrounds. Deep, earth-toned color intersects with fluid lines to shape meditative, sinuous patterns. The dynamic compositions further this organic energy, almost mimicking nature with their cyclical, ordered quality. Loosely rendered forms and splashy backgrounds allow for open interpretation of Cushner’s imagery. Whether the viewer correlates branches, signs, birds, or incomprehensible abstractions, the paintings all emanate an electric energy, a quirkiness separate from living things…perhaps conveying the root of Cushner’s passions and spontaneity.
