Marek Tobolewski
Profile/CV
UK Artist - Non-representational - painting & drawing
Ongoing Continuum series has been concerned with symmetry and reflection.
Rotating and mirroring linear forms, layering surfaces of pure colour
and exposing under-painting through negative lines.
Selected solo exhibitions:
Continuum in Symmetry, Djanogly Art Gallery, Nottingham. UK
".. These meticulously crafted lines meander across canvas and paper like the very best of choreographed snail trails. They appear deceptively simple, but are painstakingly layered and gently intertwined to create deep and penetrating visual field which draw you ever inwards. With all the works on show, intrigue, ambiguity, and understatement are combined with colour and form to generate an immersive warmth and calm evocative in part of a protected state of pre natal suspension. .."

" .. I’m no formalist, and I have little appreciation for “process art” if that’s what this is, so for the last twenty years I’ve often wondered “what on earth is Marek up to – painting circles all the time?” .. Mik Godley NVAweb
