can someone please tell me what artist this was, he was like known for the black and white dark chunky paintings like this. it was considered minimalist art, early 90's, he lived in new york and had an art studio there that was filled with these kind of paintings. 

they're all *very* expensive... he is one of my favorite artists but i forgot his name and i can't read the signature. 

i've been trying to look up his art forever and have only been able to find people copying the artistic style (for cheap and not good at all) 

but I finally found an original painting (difficult to do when you've forgotten the fucking name of the artist) 

and... WHATS HIS FUCKING NAME lol surely one of you art nerds knows it 

 

he's known for this type of painting... very famous. 

It just arouses my protest against lazy art, like much of Ives Klien's works do for me: 

I think they spend hours deliberating on these 'art pieces'. And they still believe its art at the end.

It's more about "The Artist's Statement", aka how they market it. 

I hate that shit so much. 

i think the name was like,.. something, Klein? 

Mark Klein? I don't know... 

not Rothko.... Um.... Rutherberg? Russer? I don't know 

COLE something.? Khol? 

Idk

I remember what he looked like, I remember what his studio looks like. I remember what his art looks like. I remember the time period, and the place. The fact it was in New York. 

And yet, I can't remember the dudes name. I know his eye color but not his name. 

K. I really think there is a klein in there tho lol idk.. or a mark.. Kloss? .... Kholoss? Coloss? Idk!

Ross? Mark Ross? .. Cole Ross? Russ? ...  Mark Rotherberg, Rosenberg... 

I really think it was simple.. like Mark Ross or something .. Karl Klein? Karl Khloss? 

then i scrolled down

Kazuo Shiraga

It is outstanding what you can do if you do things instead of complain about them.

That's not the name I'm looking for he wasn't Japanese

This Kazuo Shiraga ”Choryo” painted in 1990 is totally an artwork in my taste. Could easily have it at home, no problem. Picture from Axel Vervoordt’s booth at Frieze Masters in London last year.

okay well that's not the same artist though 

the guy i'm looking for does more of a swipey swipey motion 

it's less paint. it's blacker too. idk. sorry! 

blanc that is the exact same painting tho

no, that painting is by the japanese guy but 

the artist i was thinking of was a diff artist who just did paintings very similar to the japaneses guy painting 

so i thought it was his but it's not 

... 

... maybe it was like,.... mark ross... or russ marx? or .... marx.. kloss.... kloss klein.... I DON TKNOW 

ohh kk

I can appreciate this sorta work solely withing the context of what it says about when and where we live in history. 

Beyond that context such pieces disinterests me.
