About the Item
A fisherman's bedside table with a still life arrangement of a dark green wine bottle, mug, and bible against a bright, lively floral patterned botanical wallpaper in green, yellow, mauve and white. Signed on recto, signed, dated and titled on verso.
Matt Barter’s paintings center on Maine, specifically the fishing industry in Frenchman’s Cove where he grew up. A self-taught painter, Barter is inspired by his own father who is also an artist, and by the great American painter Marsden Hartley. Matt Barter researches material for his work by spending time on the fishing piers chatting with the workers and learning about their lives/struggles. He calls this research "Downeast Anthropology”.
The exhibition features six paintings that are primarily about connecting fishermen to their “gear” (the colloquial word fishermen use to describe all the varied items they use to fish) in meaningful ways. Barter uses storytelling and memories of his childhood spent working with his dad in different commercial fishing ventures. The charm of Barter’s paintings is both in its intentional naiveté and direct folk-inspired style.
Matt Barter lives and works in Brunswick and Gouldsboro, ME.
