People say painting’s dead.
Fine. It’s dead for you.
I don’t care.
Painting is alive for me.
Painting is life for me.

Wayne Thiebaud is an American painter
widely known for his colorful works
depicting commonplace objects—
pies, lipsticks, paint cans, ice cream cones
, pastries, and hot dogs—as well as
for his landscapes and figure paintings.
어린시절의 추억이 서린 장난감과
검볼머신(gumball machine), 미국인들이
일상적으로 즐기는 샌드위치와 햄버거,
먹으면 행복해지는 달콤한 케이크와 파이,
소비사회의 꿈과 욕망을 대변하는 잭팟머신,
이외에도 텅빈공간에 마치 물건처럼 그려진
무표정한 사람이 등장하는 인물화,
부인에게서 영감을 얻은 여자구두와 옷,
그가 거주한 San Francisco, Sacramento의
도시풍경, 1990년대 이후에는 전원을
소재로한 풍경화등을 선보이고 계시는 ,
아흔을 넘긴 고령의 생존화가예요 :)
Thiebaud uses heavy pigment and
exaggerated colors to depict his subjects,
and the well-defined shadows
characteristic of advertisements
are almost always included in his work.
미국 애리조나(Mesa, Arizona)에서 태어나
캘리포니아( Long Beach, California)에서
유년기를 보냈어요. 고등학교때 월트디즈니
스튜디오에서 그림을 그려 용돈벌이도 했어요.
(he apprenticed at Walt Disney Studios
drawing "in-betweens" of Goofy, Pinocchio,
and Jiminy Cricket at a rate of $14 a week.)
새크라멘토 주립대학을 졸업한후 캘리포니아와
뉴욕에서 만화가,광고디자이너로 활동한경험은
웨인티보 특유의, 여백있는 공간에 이미지를
간결하게 표현하는 작업의 배경이 되었어요.
1950년대 말부터 대중적인 오브제를 등장시켜
상품광고를 떠올리게하는
연작들을 제작하기 시작했어요.
Theibaud’s paintings capture
a uniquely American sensibility, and
critics have compared his penchant for
still lifes to Chardin and Giorgio Morandi.
Jean-Baptiste-Simeon Chardin
(He is considered a master of still life:)
Giorgio Morandi
정통 유화기법을 활용하여 대상의 질감을
표현하는점에서 18세기 프랑스화가 샤르댕이나
조르주 모란디와 비교되기도 해요.
유화물감을 사용한 붓터치로 선명하게 남은
표면의 자국들은 회화 제작과정을 짐작케해요.

●Wayne Thiebaud and the Art of Longevity
"I want to be as good as I can
and keep going, keep trying…and
keep enjoying what I'm doing,"
"I really am not satisfied with my work,"
"People view that as sort of humility
but it's not. It's reality."
Most of his friends and contemporaries
whose art hangs on the walls of
his small suburban house, such as
Willem de Kooning and Franz Kline, have died.
But Mr. Thiebaud's career is far from over.
He's painting a series of women in front
of objects such as hats and lipsticks,
inspired by his wife, Betty Jean,
who once loved to dress up and is now
suffering from lzheimer's disease +.+.
"I don't care for pop art at all," he says,
adding that he doesn't find work by
Andy Warhol or Roy Lichtenstein interesting.
"Pop artists just appropriated.
They steal too much for me." ^^;;
He admires ▷Jasper Johns's paintings and
▷Claes Oldenburg's "sense of intelligence,"
but most of all loves traditional paintings
by his idols such as Henri Matisse,
Pierre Bonnard and Edward Hopper.
He'd originally been interested in cubism
but conversations with his friends Franz Kline
and de Kooning in New York led him to realize
he had to do something different
than what other artists were doing.
"The biggest achievement and richest gift of
drawing is not the drawing, but the new eyes
that it gives you because it teaches you
how to see in a way you can't see otherwise,"
