Doris Marten
Pink Painting (Building No.4) by Doris Marten - Abstract minimalist painting

2014

About the Item

Pink Painting (Building No.4) is a unique oil on cotton canvas painting by German contemporary artist Doris Marten, dimensions are 150 × 110 cm (59.1 × 43.3 in). The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Although this work is firmly abstract, its title suggests the image of a figure within the painting. Inspired by a digital phenomenon, the Pink Paintings series revolves around a notion of abstraction. The parallel lines, so characteristic of the artist’s work, imitate the result of a digital camera malfunctioning, with its hypnotizing deep purple. A tendency for figuration hides behind these distinctly abstract oil paintings and it surfaces by association of ideas; the light and the colour can create images of landscapes, buildings or even figures. Doris Marten explores the perception of colours and their influence on each other. Line reveal colours individually and they bring to life the effect of one colour upon another. The artist has developed a thorough knowledge of colours which allows her to create optical illusions, impressions of movement and intense variations of light.

    Artist about his work: BLOBS. THE CHARM OF DRIPPING PAINT Flowing peacefully in the slow current of a narrow trickle between the feeling of senselessness and some deeply hidden hope or – rather – the need for sense, my painting is closing a subsequent circle. It is one more effort to reach the core, the essence of the nature of light and colour which actually is the essence of the substance ascribed to the job to which the painter is doomed. What I have in mind is the paint flowing across the canvas – its liquid structure which, shaped sparingly by the will of a noble tool, as well as the force of gravity, sometimes happens to become a universal message. One can recognise this message by its sound, accompanied by one’s being particularly moved. Every very tiny particle, which has for years been made sensitive, begins to resonate in accordance with the harmony now appearing, while the seductive sound which accompanies it is capable of leading one into ecstatic vibration.
