Born in 1938 in Morrow County, Ohio – specifically Mount Gilead – Ray Lowell Burggraf embarked on a journey that would establish him as a significant figure in contemporary art. His formative years were spent immersed in the rural landscapes of his birthplace, an environment that would later profoundly influence his artistic vision.
Burggraf’s artistic development is deeply rooted in the modernist landscape tradition, particularly drawing inspiration from the Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists. He meticulously studied the color theories of Michel Eugène Chevreul and Wilhelm Rood, foundational principles that became central to his unique approach. His work consciously echoes the techniques of artists like Georges Seurat, particularly in its exploration of optical mixing and vibrant color relationships.
Burggraf primarily works with acrylic paint and wood, often incorporating materials like plexiglas and even UV light to enhance the visual effects of his “color constructions.” He is known for his meticulous application of paint, achieving a crisp elegance that defines his style.
Throughout his career, Burggraf’s work has been exhibited extensively across the United States, as well as internationally in Sweden and Korea. A significant milestone was his founding membership in 1981 of the non-profit 621 Gallery in Tallahassee, Florida, where he served as its first president. In 2004, he collaborated with fellow faculty members at Florida State University to create “A Mysterious Clarity,” a traveling exhibition that gained widespread recognition and was showcased in numerous museums and galleries, including the Brevard Art Museum.
Ray Burggraf’s work stands out for its rigorous attention to technique and its exploration of the relationship between color, perception, and environment. He has brought the role of environmentally-focused artwork to the forefront of scholarly debate. His contributions have solidified his position as a notable figure in contemporary art, inspiring artists and scholars alike with his innovative approach to color construction and optical illusion.
