AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


Marc Gonz's working method involves layering, in this process of layering, a face is formed, part of the disorder and error, to find harmony. Through matter and color, Marc Gonz's works present a distorted version of reality. The brutality and density of the brushstrokes reveal a visceral work, sometimes grotesque and primitive, yet at the same time expressing deep emotions that refer us to the ancestral and spiritual, going to the essence without artifices—a excavation of the soul. With a mix of abstraction and expressionism, they create a transformation of the human form, transcending its meaning. All of this gives us an idea of his complexity and leads us into the depths of the unconscious. The artist himself crafts his own paintings, achieving a technique of impasto in which he recreates density by shaping large, overflowing pictorial masses. The volume of the brushstrokes makes the works almost sculptural, creating microcosms that take on their own identity when we approach.
their paintings, which are beautiful enough to attract attention and cryptic enough to arouse curiosity.

Marc Gonz's mysterious characters quietly draw you into their enigmatic little games, behaviors, and rituals. There is a sense of utopian pursuit that does not clearly align with any known past or future. But it aligns with the intuitive dreams of a preferable present.
