Flat and Off #2 (Oil on canvas mounted on plywood, 38cm x 48.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2008)

Flat and Off good

*This was also an experiment from 2008: I never liked medieval art- it was usually flat and basically all elements in the paintings depicting religious or feudal scenes were “off”… but somehow there was ‘something’ that did touch me in a way that I did not understand. With this little experiment I incorporated of what I found to be ‘charming’ in medieval art (the lack of perspective’, the compartmentalization, the ultramarine blue) the ‘theme’, of course, is updated. When I finish what I’m working on now I intend to build an elaborate gilded frame to finally finish this painting.

8 Outside (Oil on canvas, 122cm x 91.5cm, Dirk Marwig 2011)

8 FOCAL POINTS OUTSIDE OF CANVAS copy

This was line/colour experiment: Eight focal points outside the canvas coming from all 4 sides(2 focal points on each side). All the coloured lines that come from(or go to) the 8 focal points are ‘mirrored’ through the centre again then painted (again) in the complementary colours.
The 4 colours(blue,red,green and yellow) colours are pure(not mixed)just painted in very thin layers on top of each other. The white line just highlights the shape created through multiple repetition.
