ARTIST BIOGRAPHY.
Alexander Ross (Portland, United States, 1978) is an abstract painter whose career unfolds between America and Europe, with a pronounced influence from emotional landscape and fragmented memory. Initially trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Ross began his career exploring American abstract expressionism, influenced by artists such as de Kooning and Rothko, though he soon developed a more introspective and material language.
In 2006, after a brief residency in Berlin, he moved to Spain, settling first in Barcelona and later in a rural area of Girona. This change of environment marked a decisive turn in his work: the Mediterranean light, natural rhythms, and the silent architecture of the Catalan landscape began to filter into his compositions, softening the initial gesturality and adding greater chromatic depth.
Ross’s painting is characterized by layered surfaces, dense textures, and a palette that oscillates between earthy tones and bursts of more vibrant color. His works do not seek to represent, but to evoke inner states, often built from intuitive processes where chance plays an important role.
Throughout his career he has shown in galleries in the United States, Germany, and Spain, establishing himself as a discreet but respected figure within the contemporary abstract art circuit. In recent years, his work has tended toward more distilled compositions, where emptiness and silence take on an almost architectural protagonism.
He currently lives and works between Barcelona and the Empordà, where he continues to explore the possibilities of color and matter as vehicles of emotional experience.
