Themes and
style:
n the
early 1960s, influenced by films, television, and billboard advertising, Katz
began painting large-scale paintings, often with dramatically cropped faces. In
1965, he also embarked on a prolific career in printmaking. Katz would go on to
produce many editions in lithography, etching, silkscreen, woodcut and linoleum
cut. After 1964, Katz increasingly portrayed groups of figures. He would
continue painting these complex groups into the 1970s, portraying the social
world of painters, poets, critics, and other colleagues that surrounded him. He
began designing sets and costumes for choreographer Paul Taylor in the early
1960s, and he has painted many images of dancers throughout the years. In the
1980s, Katz took on a new subject in his work: fashion models in designer
clothing.
In the late 1980s and 1990s, Katz focused much of his
attention on large landscape paintings, which he characterizes as
“environmental.” Rather than observing a scene from afar, the viewer feels
enveloped by nearby nature. Katz began each of these canvases with “an idea of
the landscape, a conception,” trying to find the image in nature afterwards. In
his landscape paintings, Katz loosened the edges of the forms, executing the
works with greater painterliness than before in these allover canvases. In
1986, Katz began painting a series of night pictures—a sharp departure from the
sunlit landscapes he had previously painted, forcing him to explore a new type
of light. Variations on the theme of light falling through branches appear in
Katz’s work throughout the 1990s and into the 21st century. At the beginning of
the new millennium, Katz also began painting flowers in profusion, covering
canvases in blossoms similar to those he had first explored in the late 1960s,
when he painted large close-ups of flowers in solitude or in small clusters.
More recently Katz began painting a series of dancers and one of nudes, which
was the subject of a 2011 exhibition at the Kestnergesellschaft in Hanover.
Katz’s work continues to grow and evolve today his own identity and narcissism using symbolism, humor, and
sarcasm.
Techniques:
His work is developed in paintings and
prints.
