Michael Markwick is a Berlin based Dutch-American painter. In this episode, Marie joins him in his art studio in the Kreutzberg district of Berlin to talk with him about the inspirations, memories, and experiences behind his work. Michael's work is based in nature, and they talk about his process of creating a painting and his relationships with different natural and urban environments, while also discussing what it's like to be an artist today and the new life a painting takes on when it is displayed and viewed by others.
Michael Markwick's paintings have been recently published in a new catalog from the exhibition, Geist und Form: Ten Painters from Berlin, by the Indiana University Grunwald Gallery of Art.
