The Bad Need (for Parkett 61)
Est: €300 - €500
RITCHIE, MATTHEW 1964 London Title: The Bad Need (for Parkett 61). Date: 2001. Technique: Mural made of adhesive vinyl on Depiction Size: 95cm. Sheet Size: 105,5cm. Notation: Signed, dated and numbered on enclosed certificate. Publisher: Parkett-Verlag, Zurich (publisher). Number: 1/70. Condition: The work is in very good condition. With original protective film. With Parkett magazine. "Matthew Ritchie is interested in the trace, the mark, the diagrammatic and inscriptural aspects of science. Powerful abstractions of the world, these graphemes are made to intersect in his work with other abstractions drawn from popular culture: computer avatars, Japanese anime, film noir. Looking at his paintings is like being in one of Dorothy's cyclones - one minute a one-celled organism wheels by, the next minute a sequence of skulls streams along from a school chart on evolution. All are bound together in a furiously active matrix of colors applied in unmixed adjacent tones. the flat juxtapositions make it seem map-like. although there is enough play with values to destabilize that reading and create some sense of depth in the whirling forms."

Est: €20,000 - €30,000
Matthew RITCHIE (né en 1964) SPIRITS OF AIR, 2000 Acrylique et marqueur sur toile h: 127 w: 203 cm Provenance : Lehman Maupin, New York Andrea Rosen Gallery, New York Collection particulière, Luxembourg Commentaire : L'environnement pictural de Matthew Ritchie allant de la peinture, passant par des boîtes de lumières et des dessins muraux aux installations topographiques monumentales est fait de cosmologie, géologie, et des mythes de son pays natal, le Royaume-Uni. Son univers est marqué par la condensation kaléidoscopique de différents systèmes à la fois informatifs et narratifs. Nourri par le monde des sciences, de religion et des légendes de ses ancêtres, Ritchie construit une cosmologie personnelle, qui se traduit par un singulier système de langage qui encode ces données.
