Matthew Carone took up painting in the 1940s after Hans Hoffman asked
him to model in a class in which Carone’s brother Nicolas was a student.
He has never stopped painting since that seminal experience in Abstract
Expressionism. His newest work reveals many of his influences, especially
Roberto Matta and Franz Klein. It departs from the musicians and
mythological figures that populate some of his earlier paintings and uses a
dynamic gestural vocabulary that’s confident, rich in color and texture, and
charged with emotion.
