Matecki gives new life to reproduc­tions from exhibition catalogs and art magazines, trans­for­ming them into puz­zling, witty miniature oil pain­tings, with a format not exceeding a frame of a 20×20 cm square.

A series of acrylic pain­tings is an effect of a well-​structured routine—an automated process of covering the canvas with paint using a palette knife. Dimen­sions of the canvas, the colors used and juxtaposed and finally also the size of the motif, all differ. Matecki is referen­cing clas­sic forms of abs­tract pain­ting but at the same time still looking for a radical and imper­sonal quality of the con­tem­porary pain­terly image.

The star­ting point for the col­laborative work of two pain­ters is Matecki’s unin­hibited travesty of Eugene Delacroix’s Mas­sacre at Chios.

This work might well serve as a syn­op­tic manual for Art History; the nar­rative begins at the center of the canvas, with an image of a head inspired by the busts of Antiquity, to latter-​day images cut out of art journals.

Oil sketches

Oil sketches

(Polski) Szkice olejne powstają na wyrwanych z kolorowych magazynów stronach z fotografiami. Malar­stwo użyte do spoufalenia się z masową kulturą wizualną wydobywa z niej szlachetną nieoczywistość, a samo nabiera pełnej humoru lekkości.

Arise

Arise

Matecki’s Arise is a hel­lish vision of art, where the greats of French Roman­ticism are depic­ted along­side Brazil’s pioneers of Death and Trash Metal.

Artist Zbigniew Rogal­ski was char­ged with the task of developing the work fur­ther and in response he placed a rescaled study of a hip bone in the center of the canvas.

Landscape

Landscape

Painting from a series in which a reproduc­tion of and old pain­ting or land­scape photograph, placed in the lower part of the pain­ting, is con­trasted with the artist’s inter­pretation of the motif.

The work reveals the artist’s interest, developed in future works, in pain­terly matter itself and the logic of its construction.
