Today we’re highlighting gallery artist Stephen D’Onofrio 🍊 He was commissioned to create art for the cover of D.K. Furutani’s debut novel, ‘When Mikan Road Was Ours’, now on the shelves of Barnes & Noble.

D’Onofrio’s thematic image-making is broadly characterized by an interest in the home decor market, the mass commodification of art, and the generic visual language that accompanies commercial design. His paintings explore the relationship between physical spaces and the objects we fill them with. Often alluding to typical domestic decor and household ornaments, his canvases make these inherently empty objects into simplified symbols and patterns that can then be rearranged and compressed to carry a formal sensibility. The “Produce(d) Paintings” series serves as an historic exemplar of still-life painting that is as old as the medium itself.

Currently, D’Onofrio addresses the idea of painting as ornament, incorporating stock subjects of landscape, still life, and portraiture becoming knickknacks into his lexicon. The painter distills, consolidates, and appropriates the overwhelming amount of generic design aesthetic in the commercial decor market. Rather than fight the inherent kitschiness of this visual language, he embraces the imagery so his canvases can, in turn, become a critique of the subject it represents.

Today for we are highlighting the work of Donald Martiny.

It was our pleasure to work with our clients and big thanks to Oscar and his team at Capsule Fine Art Services

Donald Martiny works with paint, color, and form; elements from the history of painting often referring to color or manner of paint application from diverse areas on the art-historical timeline. While he highly values the history of painting he does not feel beholden to it.

Martiny’s current exploration is in the presence and power of gesture made to exist forever in the present. What he wants to happen is for the space between the painting and the viewer to become activated, encouraging the viewer to form a relationship and interact with the work. Beyond an observational viewing experience, he is encouraging engagement and participation with the painting. By eschewing the ground (canvas or panel) altogether, the painting directly addresses the viewer and relates more dynamically to the space around it. These massive brushstrokes offer a potent exchange inviting the viewer closer, even inside the work. The intimacy is instantaneous and intensely visceral. Martiny’s paintings are not a depiction of an experience, rather they are the experience.

Congrats to gallery artist Drea Cofield on her recent feature in Pl***oy Magazine! In 2023 Galleri Urbane was the first gallery to exhibit works from Drea’s ‘Selfie Project’, titled “Send Nudes.” Gallery Director Ree Willaford was set to exhibit Cofield’s plein air paintings, but once she saw the Selfie paintings, she said “this is your show!”

What began as trust between friends — a n**e selfie, offered and received — became paintings that ask you to slow down and actually look, in an economy built for the scroll.

“When I spend days translating a selfie into paint, I’m forced to notice everything that speed normally erases – the strange color shifts in skin, the architecture of a room, awkward gestures, emotional hesitation, little accidents that suddenly become meaningful,” Cofield says.

Jessica Drenk’s practice subverts our notion of functional everyday materials. Tactile and textural, her sculpture and 2 dimensional works highlight the chaos and beauty that can be found in everyday objects. The work is also influenced by systems of information and the impulse to develop an encyclopedic understanding of the world. Employing a processed based approach, the artist sets out to cultivate the hidden potential within these often over looked materials. The result of these process is a range of complex objects that harken formations found in nature, blurring the boundary between nature and man made.

Known and sought after for her compelling transformations that make use of common materials like Books, No2 pencils and PVC Pipes. Drenks newest work continues to push the boundaries of her creative practice by introducing, junk mail, and more recently archival book binding tape. In Drenks 2020 exhibition ‘Transmutations’ she introduced the ‘Aggregate’ series which transformed the viewer to rocks and ridges forged in the crucible of the earth long with ‘Dendrite’ (Q tips dipped in plaster), The installation was recently curated as part of NADA x Foreland 2023 in NY.
