MARTE (1990) - XXL • Gray Horizons • NO RESERVE

This is a unique and original work by the artist MARTE, signed by hand on the back and with a certificate of authenticity included. This particular painting transcends the barriers of landscape, sharing characteristics of surrealism and approaching conceptual art. It offers a new vision in contemporary abstract art with nods to abstract expressionism. The XXL format of the painting is ideal for contemplating the details in all their splendor, and it works very well in galleries and modern interiors.

MARTE's work is characterized by a balanced palette and soft brushstrokes accompanied by subtle glazes. They are compositions with a meditative spirit, and their scenes are aimed at conveying an idea associated with a strong experience. Therefore, the construction of the pictorial setting is fundamental to evoke that dreamlike vision. His/her works can encompass many themes but follow a single conceptual thread that is clearly visible in all of his/her paintings.
