About this work
Arthur Dove's *Neighborly Attempt At Murder* translates violence and human conflict into pure abstraction — a daring move that only an artist fluent in synesthesia could accomplish. The title's darkly humorous tension animates a composition of angular forms and shifting colors that suggest aggression, recoil, and the compressed intensity of a moment about to break. Rather than depicting figures in literal combat, Dove renders the *sensation* of conflict through sharp geometric planes and a palette that moves between warm hostility and cool, electric silence. The viewer encounters not a scene but an emotional state made visible — the kind of psychological weather that precedes violence, or perhaps its aftermath, held in perpetual suspension.
This work sits squarely in Dove's mature practice, where natural incidents and human dramas become the raw material for abstraction. Following his early "Nature Symbolized" series and his celebrated synesthetic translations of Gershwin and other subjects, Dove had perfected the art of making invisible forces — emotion, intention, sound — palpable on canvas. *Neighborly Attempt At Murder* extends that project into the domestic and social realm, suggesting that even the mundane tensions of neighborhood life carry a kind of turbulent energy worthy of formal investigation.
Hung in a room where natural light can animate its planes, this print speaks to viewers attuned to modernism's conviction that abstraction can access truths realism cannot. It's a work for those who appreciate dark wit and the belief that art's power lies not in representation but in resonance — in making us feel what words alone cannot explain.
About Arthur Dove
Often credited as the first American abstract painter, he was distilling landscape into pulsing shapes and rhythmic forms around 1910, several years before most of his European counterparts had fully committed to non-representation. A core member of Alfred Stieglitz's circle alongside Georgia O'Keeffe and Marsden Hartley, he spent much of his life working from boats and farmhouses along the Long Island and Connecticut shores, translating wind, sound, and sunrise into compact, organic compositions.
His paintings sit at a quiet intersection of nature and music, and they reward slow looking. For viewers drawn to early modernism with an unhurried, distinctly American pulse, his work still feels fresh.
