Rick Klauber approaches abstraction through gesture and geometric color in his work on canvas, paper, and since 2006, his Shim Paintings. These lumberyard shingles (shims) act as found brushstrokes, which he paints and combines. Klauber is a lifelong New Yorker. He studied painting at Bard College and at the same time worked closely with Helen Frankenthaler and Robert Motherwell in their studios. Klauber has exhibited in the US and internationally. He is included in many public and private collections. rickklauber.com.
