Martin Heine

A major monograph on Martin Heine's work "Now the Hard Part, the Work of Martin Heine 1989 - 2010", by Dr. David Bromfield is to be published by Brown Art in late 2010.

Martin, who is represented by Gallery East, has been developing his unique 'reverse painting' technique for nearly two decades. After many initial studies, both digital and hand drawn, he works through a fine mesh canvas painting the design from behind. This results in work with a remarkably complex expressive facture, of which, thanks to his recent researches, he is now the complete master.

Martin Heine has also worked as a performance artist for over twenty years. His performance work, whether involved and elaborate or immediate and iconic, has long been concerned with the ongoing farce of art and its audience.

Martin Heine was born in Villingen in the Black Forest, Germany, in 1957. He first arrived in Australia in 1987. He holds a PHD in art theory from Sydney University. He currently divides his time between Europe and Perth, Western Australia.
