12 Tone Scream (Oil on wood panel,122cm x 91.5cm,Dirk Marwig 2013)

This painting is inspired by the music of Alban Berg’s “Lulu”, in particular “The Lulu Suite”. Here is a YouTube video link so you can get an idea of what I’m trying to convey:

Golden Section Construction (36 recycled packaging plywood golden section rectangles,wood glue,staples,77cm x 59cm x 50cm,Dirk Marwig 2013)

This post shows how I created the “divine Angle” of 137.5º going about it in my dyslexic way:
-This is just a model using 36 recycled (packaging plywood) golden section rectangles.(6 rectangles per ‘story'(6 ‘stories’) all connected at the “Golden Mean”, then stacked.
I hate to throw materials away without playing with them first. This construction can be made out of other materials, of course, and stacked infinitely if you cut the rectangles slightly smaller and smaller as it grows in hight. It would spiral upward perfectly close to the divine angle of 137.5 degrees! Maybe one day I’ll build the real thing. This could be a cool building!
In the background you can see part of the painting ‘TV’ (Oil on canvas,140cm x 208.7cm,Dirk Marwig 2013)

AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHY SHOWCASE 1989 -Volume 12- (Cover) Shoes, Bracelets, Rings and Earrings all by Dirk Marwig 1988

“Thanks to ‘eBay’i was able to buy a hardcover copy of the original ‘American Photography Showcase Volume 12’published in New York in 1989. This was a competition company of ‘The Black and Silver Books’ sent to all Ad and Publicity agencies in The United States. The photo selected for the cover was by James Joern and it features my Jewelry and Shoes. The golden silk ‘house-robe’on the model was a gift to my ex-girlfriend by my mother and the photographer used it as well. My payment was a ‘dinner out’ with the photographer, whooopi doo!”
