AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Marc Gonz
resistance.
In front of one of his paintings, we don’t look at an image. We face an inner landscape — a tactile memory we didn’t know we carried within us.
The way Marc Gonz works consists in burying layer upon layer; in this act of burial, a face is formed, part of the disorder and the error in order to find harmony. Marc Gonz’s works, through matter and color, present us with a distorted version of reality. The brutality and density of the brushwork reveal a visceral work, sometimes vibrant, grotesque and primitive, yet at the same time it expresses deep emotions that remind us of the ancestral, the spiritual, going to the essence without artifices, an excavation of the soul. With a blend of abstraction and expressionism, they create a transformation of the human form, where its meaning is transcended. All of this gives us an idea of his complexity and leads us along the path to the deepest parts of the unconscious. The artist himself makes his own paintings, achieving a thick impasto technique in which he recreates, in the density of the painting, large overflowing masses. The volume of the brushstrokes makes the works almost sculptural, creating microcosms that take on their own identity as we approach.
