"There is an epic quality to Weinstein’s view of things in this work; sky and sea emanate the rough energies of nature, while the buildings offer us the example of culture,..our appreciation is inevitably enhanced by his tacit praise of history and the immortality of beauty."

                                  - Jonathan Goodman

Although grounded in the Plein Air tradition, Weinstein’s painting style has a twist. Each artwork consists of three transparent panels, which have a partial image worked out by the artist. The panels in an individual work are painted at different times of day often different years and from varying viewpoints. The panels are then encased in a clear acrylic box, creating a painting that appears as a seamless, multi-dimensional yet ever-shifting image. The process results in a difference, though: the suggestion of depth in the paintings is not imaginary but actual, given that each work consists of the several acrylic planes placed one behind each other. The shifting planes manifest the layers that are often blended together and obscured by traditional painting, allowing the play of ambient light to interact with the acrylic dimensions. The power of the painting is allowed to shine through as each discrete layer is given its space. What emerges is a literal deconstruction of the painting process as each layer is permitted its own spatial plane where gestural brushwork and mutable light effects are actualized on specific shifting geometric planes. The net effect is the closest experience to the documentation and experience of memory that can be visually presented.

ENGLISH 

(Venice, IT): Castello 925 presents Martin Weinstein · Dentro | Fuori in the 780 project space located at Fondamenta San Giuseppe, 780 in Venice Italy. This solo exhibition of the artist’s most recent dimensional paintings on multiple acrylic sheets is of views of Venice - both exterior, with its magnificent canals and architecture juxtaposed with interior studies of elegant Italian domesticity. Weinstein's unique practice of painting on flat transparent layers that are re-assembled inside of a clear enclosure, creates a deep and infinitely shifting space. In Dentro | Fuori, Martin continues to play with perception as he reshuffles his painted panels, inventing dimensional and temporal ambiguities.

Martin Weinstein · Dentro | Fuori opens with an artist's reception on Saturday, September 14, 2024 from 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm and remains on view through November 24, 2024.

About CASTELLO 925:

Castello 925 is a multi-disciplinary, non-profit gallery which serves as a works that were built elsewhere, yet also a space where new ideas and new co-operations come to life. Castello 925 provides room to live and breathe — not just for exhibitions, but support for the everyday life of an artist, the quietude of  a writer’s research, or the exchange between passionate art-seekers and collectors.crucible for the visual arts, literature and culture. Founder Luca Caldironi envisioned a space dedicated to creativity, or rather cre-activity. Castello 925 is a gallery with two venues: one at 925 and the other at 780, where experimental expressions of all kinds come to meet, collaborate, improvise, produce and construct; a place to present “finished” works that were built elsewhere, yet also a space where new ideas and new co-operations come to life. Castello 925 provides room to live and breathe — not just for exhibitions, but support for the everyday life of an artist, the quietude of  a writer’s research, or the exchange between passionate art-seekers and collectors.

ITALIANO

(Venezia, VE): Castello 925 presenta "Martin Weinstein · Dentro | Fuori" nel project space 780 situato in Fondamenta San Giuseppe 780 a Venezia, Italia. Questa mostra personale dei più recenti dipinti dimensionali dell'artista su più lastre acriliche riguarda vedute di Venezia, sia esterne, con i suoi magnifici canali e l'architettura giustapposti a studi interni dell'elegante domesticità italiana. La pratica unica di Weinstein di dipingere su strati piatti trasparenti che vengono riassemblati all'interno di un recinto trasparente, crea uno spazio profondo e infinitamente mutevole. Dentro | Fuori, Martin continua a giocare con la percezione mentre rimescola i suoi pannelli dipinti, inventando ambiguità dimensionali e temporali.

Martin Weinstein · Dentro | Fuori si apre con un ricevimento dell'artista sabato 14 settembre 2024 dalle 17:00 alle 20:00 e rimane visibile fino al 24 novembre 2024.
