Martha Jungwirth — Untitled
Martha Jungwirth

Untitled

2014

Martha Jungwirth's "Untitled" demonstrates the gestural abstraction characteristic of her practice, executed in oil on paperboard that has been mounted onto canvas. The work showcases her expressive brushwork and dynamic composition, reflecting the Vienna Actionism movement's emphasis on spontaneous, emotionally charged mark making. Through this layered material approach and abstract vocabulary, Jungwirth creates a work that prioritizes the immediacy of artistic gesture over representational content.
