About the Item

Matthew Marcot is an American, self-taught artist specializing in Abstract and Neo-Expressionism, and primary mediums are semiotics and collage. An underlying theme in Marcot’s work is giving visual expression to unseen ritualistic and cosmic forces - both benign and menacing - that both underlie and govern modern civilization. This was a facility of ancient art forms based on superstition and religiosity, such as in African sculpture, religious manuscripts, and cave drawings, that Marcot brings to contemporary life. Marcot’s art is fueled by his desire to explore the essence of what it means to be human in an increasingly mechanized and disassociated world. Through Marcot's embrace of primal expression, such as his own brand of hieroglyphic-like calligraphy, biomorphic semiotics, and austere geometric portraiture, he brings the human being back to their roots. Marcot works with materials such as charcoal, cut-up paper, found materials, and acrylic paint in an austere, intentional fashion to emphasize the necessity to rediscover the primal, unbridled spirit of the human being, which seems to him endangered by the impersonality of advancing technologies.

The Vanishing Act

The Vanishing Act

Located in Brooklyn, NY

Born in Lima, Peru, Victor-Raul Garcia was raised by his maternal grandmother with whom he immigrated to the United States at age 6. An abstract painter and collage artist, he has lived and worked in Europe and the US, and currently maintains his studio in Sullivan County, NY. His auto-didactic work is the result of a relentless passion to make his own reality, an innate resourcefulness and curiosity, endless days of continued experimentation, and an all-encompassing necessity to communicate through art. His art has been described as a subtle romance between expressionism and street art. By intertwining tactile and non-tactile elements through multi-layering techniques, he mirrors the complexities of his personal story, the absurdities of past and present history, and the altered state...
