{"description":"Martin Paaskesen \u2013 Elementary\nIn this exclusive video for Valerius Gallery, Martin Paaskesen reflects on Nine Piece Fruit Bowl, a playful grid of nine canvases united by a single, iconic object. Having never painted a fruit bowl in art school - because he never attended one - Paaskesen turns this academic clich\u00e9 into a personal playground. Each canvas offers a variation in technique, material, and mood: from cut canvas to oil stick, from raw minimalism to colorful bursts. Together, the nine paintings become one larger composition \u2014 a patchwork of visual rhythm and experimentation, where constraint opens up unexpected freedom.\n\n\nTimestamps:\n0:00 \u2013 Why a fruit bowl?\n0:21\u2013 How did you approach it?\n1:10 \u2013 What did you take from painting the same thing nine times?","height":2160,"html":"<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%\"><iframe src=\"https://skiv.com/embed/5n6DE4q\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0;top:0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"fullscreen\" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>","provider_name":"Skiv","provider_url":"https://skiv.com","thumbnail_height":198,"thumbnail_url":"https://cdn.skiv.com/u/VZUsUj7/85d60c9a692f5a950d99e81c37f414bbc7507d061c66a6e77c71ca33cc29481a/thumbnails/thumbnail.jpg","thumbnail_width":352,"title":"Nine Piece Fruit Bowl","type":"video","url":"https://skiv.com/v/5n6DE4q","version":"1.0","width":3840}
