About the Item

While the brushstroke motif has been embraced by Roy Lichtenstein to James Nares, Martiny takes a singular approach. Each smear of paint is full of flecks of multiple colors, giving the impression that they were created with massive paintbrushes. In actuality, he doesn’t use a paintbrush at all, or any other painting tool—he makes these works entirely by hand. To create the highly palpable textures, Martiny mixes polymers and pigments until he reaches a desirable viscosity and applies the mixture to sheets of aluminum. He once described his artistic practice as “a dance trapped in paint,” and his dynamic, gestural works are surely a testament to this active process.
