_________________________________________
Marius Seidlitz is a contemporary painter based in Germany. His works walk the line between abstract and figurative – depicting deconstructed portraits comprised of abstract forms, curves, and shadows.
Sexuality is a pervasive theme of Seidlitz’s works. The portraits he depicts are of emphasised beauty; elongated necks, large voluminous lips and sultry eyes gaze at the viewer from the canvas. Broken down into separate shapes and components, Seidlitz cuts away the parts of the face which society deems unexciting, leaving only the extremes of what makes up desirable beauty.
He emphasises the smooth, shiny texture of the forms, as if they have been created by machinery. Using a single colour for each piece, Seidlitz uses tones, highlights and shadows to create his works, emphasising the surrealist nature of the imagery. His abstracted figures appear to emerge for the canvas, constrained by the boarders of their singular-coloured world.
The result is something otherworldly. The women depicted in his works seem robotlike, alien and dangerous. One is reminded of the works of Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama and his iconic pin-up robots. Seidlitz wants his viewer to sit somewhere between attraction and repulsion. His works are a statement against the western beauty standards of today; if you take away the humanness of individuality and leave only what is considered sexually desirable, you are left with something monstrous.
Over the past 10 years, Seidlitz has exhibited across Europe and East Asia, and become part of private collections around the world.
