Martin C. Herbst (Austrian, b. 1965) discusses the process behind making his recent book Mercury in our latest installment of our Artist Insights series. Read his complete blog post on our gallery blog. Martin. C. Herbst is an Austrian painter, whose work focuses on an elaborate reevaluation of art historical themes and theories of classical portraiture and human figures. His “subjects” are individual but at the same time portray the best work of their epochs. The traditional intent to display the distinctive likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person is combined with witty and often unexpected forms of representation. Herbst has exhibited extensively around the globe including his participation in several international art fairs including: Art Basel, Art Miami, Scope New YorK, Basel, Miami, Hamptons, London, Art Chicago, Los Angeles Art Show, Artbo, Bogota, Show Off, Pairs, Art Brussels, Arteabeunos Aires.
