Original Description
Cadence by Alice L. Mattern is a mesmerizing abstract expressionist painting that captures the rhythm of movement through dynamic brushstrokes and a harmonious interplay of colors. Created in the mid-20th century, this work embodies the emotional intensity and spontaneity characteristic of the Abstract Expressionist movement, which emerged in post-war America as a radical departure from traditional representational art. Mattern, though less widely known than contemporaries like Pollock or de Kooning, contributed significantly to the movement with her unique approach to layering and texture. The painting’s title, Cadence, suggests a musical or poetic flow, reflected in its undulating forms and vibrant hues that seem to pulse with energy. Its historical significance lies in its embodiment of the era’s exploration of subconscious creativity and the artist’s personal emotional landscape, making it a valuable piece for collectors of mid-century modern art.
For interior design, Cadence thrives in spaces that balance modernity and warmth. Its bold, flowing forms make it ideal for a living room or office where it can serve as a focal point. Pair it with minimalist, mid-century furniture—think clean-lined sofas or walnut-toned credenzas—to let the artwork shine. The painting’s rich palette of blues, ochres, or crimsons (depending on the specific composition) can be echoed in throw pillows, rugs, or accent walls to create cohesion. A large-scale canvas (typical of Mattern’s works) suits spacious walls with ample natural light, while a smaller study version could elevate a cozy reading nook. Avoid overcrowding the space; let its rhythmic energy breathe by keeping surrounding decor subdued yet textured, like a sisal rug or brushed brass fixtures. In an office, it injects creativity without overwhelming, fostering an inspiring yet professional ambiance.
