Influ\u00eft per C\u00e9zanne, Picasso, Kandinsky, Klee i Mir\u00f3, el seu treball evoluciona de la figuraci\u00f3 cap a un univers propi poblat de formes biom\u00f2rfiques, composicions equilibrades i un humor subtil i constant.\r\n\r\nLa seva anomenada abstracci\u00f3 sat\u00edrica es caracteritza per una gran llibertat gestual i una extraordin\u00e0ria sensibilitat crom\u00e0tica.

Martin (1938\u20132005) developed a distinctive body of work within American art of the second half of the twentieth century, characterised by a free, satirical and deeply personal form of abstraction. Influenced by C\u00e9zanne, Picasso, Kandinsky, Klee and Mir\u00f3, his practice evolved from figuration towards a unique visual language populated by biomorphic forms, balanced compositions and a constant, subtle humour.\r\n\r\nHis so-called satirical abstraction is marked by great gestural freedom and an exceptional sensitivity to colour. Strange, almost organic creatures emerge in drawings and paintings that convey a sense of serene joy and quiet vitality. Martin worked fluently across a wide range of techniques \u2014 ink, pencil, gouache, watercolour and collage \u2014 demonstrating both technical mastery and a remarkable talent as a colourist.\r\n\r\nThis exhibition brings together works from three significant series from the 1970s and 1980s: the oval drawings (1971\u20131973), the graphite pencil drawings (1977\u20131978) and the ink drawings made with a bamboo pen (1982). Together, they offer a rich and coherent insight into the work of an original and independent artist who remains under-recognised in Europe.","event_category":103,"event_show_only_own_date":true,"_event_confirmed":true,"_event_public":true,"_event_free":true,"_event_price-min":"","_event_price-max":"","_event_web_ca":"https:\/\/galeriamarcdomenech.com\/","_event_web_es":"https:\/\/galeriamarcdomenech.com\/","_event_web_en":"https:\/\/galeriamarcdomenech.com\/","event_contact_email":"","event_apply_email":"","is_online_event":false,"is_art_nou_event":false,"is_bgw_event":false,"date_text":"","register_deadline":null,"altres_organitzadors":""},"abe_event_venue":"Galeria Marc Dom\u00e8nech","abe_event_category":"Exposici\u00f3","start":"2026-02-10 00:00:00","end":"2026-03-13 23:59:00","schedule":"once","schedule_meta":"","frequency":1,"all_day":1,"until":"2026-02-10 00:00:00","include":[],"exclude":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/54553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/132"}],"occurrences":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/54553\/occurrences"}],"acf:term":[{"embeddable":true,"taxonomy":"event-category","href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-category\/103"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-venue","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-venues?post=54553"},{"taxonomy":"event-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graf.cat\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-tags?post=54553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
