Anton Martineau (Amsterdam, 1926 - 2017)
From an early age, he learned to paint and decorate houses and to stylize all kinds of plants, animal shapes, and objects for decoration and advertising. Supported by several fellow painters, including Jan Sierhuis, he followed his intuition, the path he envisioned. Anton Martineau's oeuvre contains "narrative" elements. Newspapers, letters, shoes, everyday objects, as well as love, eroticism, and fear, form his themes. Starting from small ink drawings, he begins his journey and continues his endless quest that seems endless because, as he himself claims, the work is never finished. Over the years, Anton Martineau has built an impressive oeuvre. Paintings, drawings, and hundreds of poems are the result of a passionate life. His paintings form the focal point. Explosively painted with abundant contrasting black, they depict the relationship between men and women and, more broadly, the relationship between a man and his surroundings. Whether he seats a model on a divan, paints portraits, or still lifes, his works consistently demonstrate a profound emotional charge. Man is depicted as a multifaceted personality; fear, joy, and amazement, a range of emotions on a single canvas. He is also passionate as a painter and draftsman. Often, quick sketches precede his painted work. He discards nothing during the creative process. Fortunately, because his drawings also fascinate and amaze. After all, he is an unparalleled master of charcoal, pencil, chalk, and abstraction.
