Provenance: - Carmen Lamanna Gallery, Ontario (label) - Collection Kasper König, Berlin Ron Martin is a Canadian artist characterised by his pioneering contributions to abstract painting. He has been exploring the formal and material opportunities of painting since the 1960s, experimenting with colour, texture and composition. His works are known for their dynamic, gestural brushwork, which evokes both contemplative and emotional resonance in the viewer. Martin's work reflects a profound exploration of the process of painting itself and continually questions the limits and possibilities of the medium. Bright Red Paintings In autumn 1972, Martin presented some of his 'Bright Red Paintings' to the public for the first time. The 'Bright Red' series of works represents a fundamental starting point in Martin's artistic work. In the monochrome series, Martin expresses his artistic feelings directly through the brushstrokes on the canvas, thus elevating colour itself to a medium. The momentum, form and colour application of the individual strokes convey Martin's emotions at the time the work was created, without resorting to grand theatrical gestures or motifs. His monochrome series can therefore be understood as individual snapshots of a coherent series. This serial way of working brings the artist's oeuvre close to Minimalism. However, although Martin deliberately utilises some of the characteristics of this art movement, he clearly distinguishes himself from it. While repetition is a characteristic element of Minimalism, Martin only works serially until he has exhausted the theme. As a result, he completed the series of 'Bright Red Paintings' in the 1970s after producing 24 paintings and turned his attention to the next body of work, the 'Black Paintings'. Kasper König and Ron Martin With this strong conceptual level, Martin set himself apart from the works of other abstract artists. König recognised Martin's artistic quality early on. He was already promoting the artist's work to museum directors and cultural politicians in the mid-1970s. Estimated shipping costs for this lot: Arrangement after the auction.

"One-Colour Painting" (1972-73) would have been executed with strict parameters: Martin used a standard sized canvas for artworks in this series, a predetermined amount of only one colour of paint, and did not allow for any interruption during its execution.

Of the 'One Colour Paintings' from 1970 through to 1973/74, Walter Klepac writes: By choosing to submit himself and the work to the to the rule of the clock, Martin has replaced the expressive component in action painting (as well as the intentional component in traditional painting} with an external and mechanical limit. The method of paint application, the choice of type, amount and colour of paint, represent the physical limits at work in these paintings.
