Joseph Marioni
(American, b. 1943)

"Green Painting", 2004

acrylic on Belgian linen
signed, dated and titled on stretcher, with "Matthews Gallery" and "Larry Becker/Philadelphia, Pennsylvania" labels en verso. Unframed.
52" x 42"

Provenance: Larry Becker Contemporary Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Matthews Gallery, Santa Fe, New Mexico; Private collection, Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Other Notes: ...no illustration can begin to capture the absolute specificity which in this case also means the transfixing intensity, of the ultimate hue, or the tensile integrity of the paint surface, or the sheer rightness of the color in relation to the size and shape of the support, or the suggestion of depth within or behind the paint surface...
