(born in Santa Monica, California in 1951)
Untitled (Subjective), signed, dated Matt Mullican, 1989, on the reverse, oil, oilstick on canvas, 240 x 120 cm, on stretcher (PP)
Provenance:
Galerie Micheline Szwajcer, Antwerp
European Private Collection
‘In the 1980s the development of a complex sign system stood at the center of Mullican’s interest, which claimed to be an comprehensive cosmology. In engaging with the signs, pictograms, and images that surround us in everyday life, pictograms, and images expanded through products of fantasy, Mullican generates by way of repetition, contextualization, and mutual references a highly complex personal language system, with which he tries to grasp his cosmology in models. Encyclopedic, utopian, universal, cosmological are only some of the terms that obtrude in this context. Since the late 1980s, he has also used newer technologies to develop and represent this cosmology, like the computer and the Internet. In the virtual media space, in so doing city-like ordering systems emerge as models of cognitive perception, or as models of changing perspectives on various layers of perception that the artist symbolizes using color.’
