"It's easy to get intimidated by Mary Bucci McCoy's artist statement — there's a poem in French, free use of the backslash, and we think we caught the word 'dialectical' in there somewhere. Her work itself, on the other hand — elevated or impressed blocks painted with minimalist abstractions — is warm and inviting, to the point that you'll be tempted to touch the thick splotches of paint. Must be that dialectic or sumthin'. After a few sips of wine and the welcoming atmosphere of the Kingston Gallery, you'll be nodding at that art like your B.A. was worth a damn."

Review: Anne Krinsky, "Diane Ayott, Mary Bucci McCoy, and Rose Olson:
Consequences of Geometry", Art New England, Dec/Jan 2009

"Bucci McCoy's acrylics on wood conflate the sensuality of paint and flesh...The thoroughly nonobjective Hot Melt, and eight-inch square pinkish panel, improbably invokes a Tom Wesselmann nude."

new work by Mary Bucci McCoy

works on mdf + site-specific wall drawing

June 2 – July 7, 2007

Main Gallery

This exhibit included the first four works of the Élan vital series on one wall, and on the opposite wall Core and Periphery. On the center wall was a 88 x 110" site specific wall drawing, Light/White Investigation No. 1 (see installation slide show below). This piece — incorporating latex paint, the gallery lighting, marker, acrylic paint, and a spherical map pin — was created over the course of a week in response to the work on either side.

Industrial Strength
three person exhibit curated by Kathleen Bitetti

January 10 – February 15, 2007

Lillian Immig Gallery
Emmanuel College
Boston, MA

"...these three artists represent some of the most interesting conceptual reasoning as to why they are using these materials. They are masterfully using these materials to comment on and question such relevant issues as gender roles, contemporary popular culture, war, the unrelenting discussion of craft vs. fine art, and/or the age old question of what differentiates a 2-d work from a 3-d work. Geometry and geometric shapes, as well as references to history of abstraction, are also present in all of their works.

Mary Bucci McCoy, who works primarily in 2-d, is showing selections from two series of work: her 2006 Roundelay series and her 2005 Oblique Derivation series. ... Bucci McCoy’s minimal based-works celebrate the MDF material and she brilliantly uses the material’s organic color as the dominant color..."
