About the Item

62 x 31 in. central element, 25 x 14 in. element No. 2, 12 x 17 in. element No. 3 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.

    Donald Martiny’s signature work is composed of dispersed pigment on aluminum. He creates immediately frozen brushstrokes that are made from his own movements. They are defined by the physicality of his body. Moving is an expression, just as is the color. The paintings are actual authentic gestures. Once completed, they look like relief on the wall. The artist is represented by galleries in Europe, the US and Australia. Additionally, his work is in the permanent collections of the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, CA; the Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth, TX; the Newcomb Art...
