Credentials

Works on commission

Matt Cohen is an accomplished oil painter with a BFA from the School of Visual Art in NYC and an MA from UMass Amherst, who also teaches art history. He fuses modernist painting with experimental techniques, integrating wire mesh, plexiglass, and drawings to create layered assemblages. His style combines references to masterworks with intuitive explorations of process, revealing the visible history of decision-making. Cohen’s work radiates an intricate sense of time’s flow, evoking profound introspection about presence, memory, and the emotional resonance of personal history.

Comment from my solo exhibit in Northampton, MA, 2024: " This is the best work done in the Valley in a very long time." Jamie Young, recognized and respected artist.
