Joseph McGurl, American, b. 1958
Designated a living master by the Art Renewal Center and widely regarded as a leader of the American landscape school, Joseph McGurl is one of the most important realist painters today.
McGurl works almost exclusively with oil paint, capturing marine and landscape scenes in his native New England as well as other areas of the Eastern US. Along with his childhood as a muralist’s son, McGurl’s days as a sailor and his studies under Robert Cormier both informed and inspired McGurl’s work on his subject matter.
McGurl’s style is a modern extension of the 19th Century Luminist school and is illuminated by a fascination for the interplay of light and coloured by a knowledge of physics. It is this focus that drives McGurl to work exclusively in the rare method of en plein air painting rather than relying on photography.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT:
As a realist, I work in a sphere which must function on several different levels simultaneously. Although I have a deep personal connection to the landscape, it is also a vehicle to explore my interest in modern physics, spirituality, and the exploration of light, form, space, and color interpreted with paint. The slice of reality that man is capable of experiencing and the higher reality that permeates time and space is my true subject.
My artistic influences began during my youth. The luminist paintings I walked past on the way to art classes at the Boston M.F.A. formed part of my cultural identity. Because of the Transcendentalists’ influence on these painters, I became intrigued with the Transcendentalist belief that nature and light in particular were spirituality symbolic.
As a landscape painter who interprets light, I also developed an interest in the study of modern physics. Coincidentally, as well as signifying spirituality, the particle that gives us light, the photon, is a primary vehicle for physicists to better understand the workings of the universe. My interests in the physical and spiritual implications of light are some of the many reasons why I never work from photographic reference. To paint light, I must paint actual light which is composed of photons. A photograph does not contain photons; therefore, it is impossible to interpret actual light from a photograph. To gain a deeper understanding of my subject, I devote a significant portion of my painting time to plein air work. Although my studio paintings are often imaginary, they are informed by thousands of plein air studies which lend emotional and empirical truth to the scenes depicted. Because of my love for the forms of nature and in an attempt to arrive at a more universal and timeless portrayal of reality, a high fidelity to visual truths predominate over a more stylistic approach to my art making.
In addition to its descriptive qualities, I strive to make the paint visually interesting in its own right. Towards this end, I employ a variety of techniques to manipulate the support surface as well as the paint itself. These manipulations present the paint as an entity in itself while at the same time create the illusions found in representational oil painting.

Joseph McGurl
Joseph McGurl è uno dei più celebri pittori americani realisti. L'Art Renewal Center lo ha definito un maestro vivente e non è difficile capire perché. Con le loro superfici d'acqua straordinariamente riflettenti e i cieli azzurri striati di arancioni e gialli caldi, i dipinti figurativi di McGurl e i dipinti paesaggistici assomigliano a fotografie di luoghi sereni catturati con la migliore luce naturale possibile.
Il primo e più influente insegnante di McGurl fu suo padre, James McGurl, che lavorava come muralista. Da giovane Joseph ha frequentato il Massachusetts College of Art e ha conseguito una doppia laurea in pittura e istruzione. In seguito ha trascorso un periodo di studio presso i Fenway Studio e il Museum of Fine Arts di Boston, oltre a studiare in Italia e in Inghilterra. Un periodo trascorso su uno yacht ha ispirato l'amore per la pittura del mondo naturale.
Per il suo gioco di luci e colori, il caratteristico stile iperreale di McGurl viene spesso paragonato ai luministi americani , un movimento del XIX secolo legato alla Hudson River School. McGurl è un pittore plein air: lavora esclusivamente all'aria aperta, invece di lavorare su fotografie all'interno di uno studio. I suoi paesaggi d'atmosfera riguardano principalmente aree del New England e degli Stati Uniti orientali.
McGurl è membro del Plein Air Painters of America e del Guild of Boston Artists. Le sue opere sono conservate presso la Forbes Collection, la Mellon Collection, il Cape Cod Museum of Art, il New Britain Museum of American Art e il Cahoon Museum of American Art. An He ha ottenuto numerosi riconoscimenti, tra cui l'International Salon First Place in Landscape dell'Art Renewal Center e il Gold Medallion della Guild of Boston Artists. Nel 2020, Cavalier Galleries a New York City ha ospitato una mostra intitolata "Joseph McGurl - Contemporary American Luminism: Viaggio nel tempo e nello spazio".
