Color Planes
This Punk is inspired by CryptoPunk #9621 and the work of Georg Baselitz. German neo-expressionist artist and avant-garde sculptor, one of the founders of the New Wild group. The artist's real surname is Kern, and he took the pseudonym from the name of his hometown Deutschbaselitz, located near Dresden.
Georg Baselitz — Adieu, 1982
The inspiration for Punk was Baselitz's painting "Adieu". The work is a group portrait in which people are depicted in the traditional manner for Baselitz – upside down. A certain relationship develops between the two participants in the work: one of the characters intends to leave, while the second, obviously, is still not ready to part. The artist worked on the painting for several weeks, and redid it several times, as he could not find the optimal distance between the diverging figures. As for the chess background of the work, it was inspired by the flags that the author saw during the Grand Prix race shortly before the painting was created.
The color scheme of the SupremePunk is inspired by the painting by Bazelitz. The composition of the painting is based on the principle of superimposing color planes on each other. These planes do not argue with each other, but on the contrary, they harmonize and combine. As in the Baselitz painting, the mood of the SupremePunk is calm and aloof. Inclined color planes support the overall static of the composition. The background is made in gray, which also makes the picture calm and balanced.
Julian Schnabel — Catherine Marie Angie, 1990
Also, a similar static and calmness can be found in the works of Julian Schnabel. His painting "Catherine Marie Angie" is one of three large-scale compositions on a tarpaulin, painted by the artist for the Italian ancient Roman temple Maison Sagge, and has been there for 5 years since its creation. The abstract composition was created by the artist spontaneously, with the help of a piece of cloth soaked in paint, which he threw on the canvas to get multi-colored prints. The name for this picture also came by chance. While working on the work, Julian Schnabel found in the back room of the museum a lost ID of a young girl unknown to him named Catherine Marie Angie and decided to name the work after her.
Alexander Rodchenko — Composition, 1919
The overall style of the SupremePunk is made in a minimalistic style, where a non-objective space is created. SupremePunk also shows the idea of self-sufficiency of color and shapes. It conveys the movement and development of an object through overlapping shapes and volumes. Overlapping segments of geometric shapes creates a sense of planned work, creating a spatial composition of geometry. Similar techniques can be found in the works of Alexander Rodchenko.
