HORIZONS

Martin Venezky

My collaboration with Barbara Levine has continued with a series of collages for display by Levine’s Project B at Houston’s Fotofest. Each of these large pieces revolves around a sustained horizon line in the composition. Details from found photography sit alongside strips from my own abstract photo studies. As with other recent collage work, some connections are seamless, while others are tense and volatile.Territory, the physical landscape, boundaries, dislocation are all recurring themes.

    Martin Venezky, USA (2015)

    Martin Venezky first gained renown in 1995 for the design of Speak Magazine. With his firm Appetite Engineers, Venezky continues his dedication to craft, process and detail while colliding the handmade with the digital. In 1997, he was among I.D. magazine’s “ID40” list of influential designers. The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art has honored Venezky with a solo exhibition, and his monograph, It Is Beautiful...Then Gone, is published by Princeton Architectural Press. Venezky has crafted illustrations for the New York Times and Wired, and installations at the Silicon Valley Facebook and Adobe campuses. Most recently, his book design for the wildly popular Wes Anderson Collection has earned him new fans. Since 1993, Venezky has taught at California College of the Arts, where he is currently Professor in the Graduate Design Program. He has also taught at CalArts in Valencia CA; RISD in Providence RI, ArtCenter in Pasadenca CA, and the Kansas City Art Institute in Kansas City MO.
