DIANA WATSON
RONDO
14 SEPTEMBER - 9 OCTOBER 2013
Diana Watson's rich palette and layered glazes give a jewel-like quality to her
exceptional paintings, evoking the renaissance painters with her
sumptuous still life arrangements and glorious flowers. In keeping with
the classic allusions in her works, her current exhibition at Richard Martin Art, 'Rondo' references Rondo a word used in music, most often in reference to a musical form.

WALDEMAR KOLBUSZ
RICHARD MARTIN ART PRESENTS
WALDEMAR KOLBUSZ
13 – 31 July 2013
Perth-based painter Waldemar
Kolbusz takes as his central artistic agenda the language of colour and form.
His deeply expressionistic paintings emphasise dynamic, energetic gesture in
contrast to a reflective cerebral focus on more open fields of biomorphic
colour. Inspired by the New York School greats Rothko and Motherwell, Kolbusz’s
work resists formal categorisation by eluding a static sense time and place.
Kolbusz’s latest body of work at
Richard martin Art marks the artist’s heroic vision of human irrationality and
vulnerability. The simplified, astute geometry and large-format of Kolbusz’s
work aligns with an exodus of pictorial means to foreground the elemental
impact of colour-dominated fields. In violent opposition to previous
exhibitions, this new body of work foregoes any reference to memory, association,
nostalgia, legend and myth, instead relying on viewers’ freedom of
interpretation to generate reactive feeling.
“I am an expressive painter
primarily concerned with employing challenging combinations of colour and
shape. My preoccupation is to paint works which generate an original awareness
of colour, an element which saturates our existence,” says Kolbusz. (2008)
Kolbusz has been painting for
over a decade; in 1996 at the age of 28, he left his then career in accounting
to revisit his passion for the arts. Today his work is exhibited and collected
both nationally and internationally and he continues to enjoy critical acclaim
in today’s competitive artistic landscape. One of Kolbusz’s most meritable
achievements thus far was his collaboration with renowned designer Aurelio
Costarella in April 2013. Kolbusz interpreted the designer’s summer 13/14 collection
palette to produce a series of four works that were subsequently used as
backdrops to the designer’s multi-platform installation-come-fashion parade at
Mercedes Benz Fashion Week 2013.

since 2008. His work is held in several high profile corporate, public and
private collections in Australia, New York, Brunei, Germany and Spain.
