The art of Matthew Davis (b. 1969, Colchester, UK; lives and works in Berlin) operates between the micro and macro dimensions, between control and chance. Working with extraordinary precision, the artist applies drops of synthetic resin varnishes and enamel paints to canvases laid flat. The artist\u2019s book Kustodiev<\/em> showcases a recent innovative turn in Davis\u2019s output, whose latest works were inspired by the lusciously colorful pictures of the Russian painter Boris Kustodiev (1878\u20131927). Kustodiev<\/em> was manufactured using offset presses and Office Offset, a largely forgotten reproduction process based on miniature offset printing machines. The publication is released in a limited edition of 250 copies.<\/p>\n Matthew Davis studied at the Camberwell College of Arts, London, and the Norwich School of Art and Design. His work has been shown at the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, Berlin; K\u00fcnstlerhaus Wien, Vienna; Kunsthalle Wilhelmshaven; and other museums and galleries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An Expressive Instant in Painting<\/p>\n The art of Matthew Davis (b. 1969, Colchester, UK; lives and works in Berlin) operates between the micro and macro dimensions, between control and chance.
