Wonzimer is pleased to present THE THEORY OF THE GREEN PAINTING
The concept of the green painting came into being slowly over many centuries as certain peculiarities were noticed to be prevalent in the histories of a small number of paintings. The defining characteristic of the green painting is that after having been finished, the painting remains continually in the artist's possession even though the artist had never made a decision to keep the painting and had actually made many attempts to have others obtain it. Why this occurs is part of the theory of the green painting. The painting itself seems to have dictated its own history. There are certain qualities in some paintings that result in those paintings dictating their own histories, not directly, but in an indirect manner. A concomitant relationship exists between the relevant qualities in the painting and the person viewing the painting. What these qualities are remains the question and are the subject of the theory of the green painting...
