JP Marsman for sale on 1stDibs

Dutch artist Jean Paul Marsman is born in 1968 Jean-Paul Marsman, born in Nijmegen, is a remarkable Dutch artist who lives and works in Veldhoven. His work is bought by, among others: collectors, galleries, museums and companies. His work is intense and full, a conversation or a discussion and one of the few artists who dares to work in more than 1 style. On the one hand there is his colorful figurative work with graffiti influences that rubs against Pop Art. Expressionist work in which image and text are equally important and reinforce each other. Reflecting the artist's rich imagination, this work is inspired by everyday events, with his graphic advertising background evident in his work. On the other hand, there is his hushed hyper-realistic work. In which the classical craft of the 17th century painting techniques forms the monumental and timeless character of his compositions. These works are characterized by the refined detail and the layering of colors, which make the works into true masterpieces. Two extremes in painting style, but inextricably linked. His work in both styles is also characterized by contrasts in subject and content. About the realistic paintings by Jean Paul Marsman JP Marsman's cheerful and hyper-realistic paintings appeal to the imagination on several levels. artisan; the work is painted so realistically that everything seems 'touchable'. It seems to be 'there'... Colour; the artist isn't afraid to go wild with color. This gives the still lifes a liveliness that is unique for 'still lifes'. combinations; the subjects that Jean Paul Marsman puts together on a panel are very diverse. Because of the extremely realistic effect you believe what you see. That makes the still lifes stimulating performances that never bore. The fresh colors give a continuous feeling of spring or summer and a good mood. It always seems to be beautiful weather with his meticulously elaborated flowers, birds, vegetables and fruit. Fresh colours, a very realistic elaboration and surprising combinations are perhaps the keywords of the artist. Very popular are the series in which Jean Paul Marsman keeps showing his works. The series with birds for example. Birds such as a Robin or Blue Tit in combination with stimulating subjects. Literally with barbed wire and beautiful flowers, but also with eggs of all kinds. Not the eggs of the various birds themselves, but a chocolate egg or, for example, a Fabergé egg. Recently, the artist started a new series, he became interested in the billiard ball. The shine, the material and the colors in combination with a number make it a challenge to paint. The shine in Jean Paul Marsman's billiard balls is very special and fascinating. Again, the combinations are surprising and unusual. For example, a tulip carrying a ball becomes a Power Flower. Painted by the Eindhoven artist you believe it is possible... . A combination of Barbed Wire, Robin, Billiard Ball and Chocolate Egg is one of the latest creations by the special artist.

A Close Look at contemporary Art

Used to refer to a time rather than an aesthetic, Contemporary art generally describes pieces created after 1970 or being made by living artists anywhere in the world. This immediacy means it encompasses art responding to the present moment through diverse subjects, media and themes. Contemporary painting, sculpture, photography, performance, digital art, video and more frequently includes work that is attempting to reshape current ideas about what art can be, from Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s use of candy to memorialize a lover he lost to AIDS-related complications to Jenny Holzer’s ongoing “Truisms,” a Conceptual series that sees provocative messages printed on billboards, T-shirts, benches and other public places that exist outside of formal exhibitions and the conventional “white cube” of galleries.

Contemporary art has been pushing the boundaries of creative expression for years. Its disruption of the traditional concepts of art are often aiming to engage viewers in complex questions about identity, society and culture. In the latter part of the 20th century, contemporary movements included Land art, in which artists like Robert Smithson and Michael Heizer create large-scale, site-specific sculptures, installations and other works in soil and bodies of water; Sound art, with artists such as Christian Marclay and Susan Philipsz centering art on sonic experiences; and New Media art, in which mass media and digital culture inform the work of artists such as Nam June Paik and Rafaël Rozendaal.

The first decades of the 21st century have seen the growth of Contemporary African art, the revival of figurative painting, the emergence of street art and the rise of NFTs, unique digital artworks that are powered by blockchain technology.

Major Contemporary artists practicing now include Ai Weiwei, Cecily Brown, David Hockney, Yayoi Kusama, Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami and Kara Walker.

Finding the Right figurative-paintings for You

Figurative art, as opposed to abstract art, retains features from the observable world in its representational depictions of subject matter. Most commonly, figurative paintings reference and explore the human body, but they can also include landscapes, architecture, plants and animals — all portrayed with realism.

While the oldest figurative art dates back tens of thousands of years to cave wall paintings, figurative works made from observation became especially prominent in the early Renaissance. Artists like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and other Renaissance masters created naturalistic representations of their subjects.

Pablo Picasso is lauded for laying the foundation for modern figurative art in the 1920s. Although abstracted, this work held a strong connection to representing people and other subjects. Other famous figurative artists include Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. Figurative art in the 20th century would span such diverse genres as Expressionism, Pop art and Surrealism.

Today, a number of figural artists — such as Sedrick Huckaby, Daisy Patton and Eileen Cooper — are making art that uses the human body as its subject.

Because figurative art represents subjects from the real world, natural colors are common in these paintings. A piece of figurative art can be an exciting starting point for setting a tone and creating a color palette in a room.
