Artist Research - Joe Fedderson & Stanley William Haytor

Joe Feddersen is a mix media artist, with work extending from paintings to photography.

Shard #2 - 2001

The pieces that I found to be most interesting are the ones that have very colourful and intricate patterns. And with good reason, as it seems that many feel the same way. The Geometric shapes have a lot of impact on the composition, and the colours making a good visual connection to Feddersen’s intention to base his works on his native Maerican heritage. The use of the natural brown and orange really helps.

Stanley William Haytor was an England born surrealist and abstract expressionist painter and printmaker. He is an innovator of his time, even having many famous artists being taken under his wing at his own founded studio, Atelier 17. I was always so interested in how he was so well regarded.

Deliquescence - 1935

His work from 1930′s onwards has taken a massive step into abstract expressionism and into the development of viscosity painting; this is where the artist will put aside their need for structure and consciousness to create a very free and easy flowing art piece. The very fluid lines and various splashes of colour help with this idea.

The reason I researched these two artists are because of their strong relation to printmaking, plus their strong relation to their own style as well. While Feddersen might have fluid and splashy colours but he doesn’t seem to go all the way as Haytor does, and vise-versa. What I want to do in my project for printmaking is to create art pieces that combine and mix these different styles of printmaking to help create interesting compositions and dynamic visual elements.
