Anton Munar Biography

Thoughtful about the physicality of his works, Anton Munar (b. 1997 in Copenhagen, Denmark) plays with a wide range of materials encompassing oil, distemper, gouache, ink, charcoal, chalk, pastel and pigments, that he combines in varied mixtures to be applied either to canvas, linen, or wood, often borrowed from pieces of furniture such as found drawers.

Through these rich layers of paint, he builds up evocative compositions at the confluence of fragmented narratives drawn from the driving force of love, where interior and exterior spaces intertwine and where phantasmagoric visions infiltrate the physical world. Elongated figures — sometimes painted on equally elongated canvases — inhabit bedrooms, houses, alleys, and cemeteries whose tranquility always seems threatened by shadows emerging from behind Munar's mark-making. Through their dense surfaces, the works carry their own history like layers of sediment, to which Spanish titles, alluding to the artist's Majorcan origins, add another poetic layer.
