Charge your heart with paint
and rush its imprint through a
dragnet of emotions. - Drenched Co.
Comment: "Mr Pletiner's young star is on the rise. I first saw his work in 2014, and now, as then, Pleitner's lines, his gesture, his pallete, reminds me of De Kooning's sinewy abstractions (see for instance Women 1 (1952)), highly energetic, all-action, all expression. With Pleitner I see a barren landscape of muscle and sinew, coiled, taut and tense, rigid and strained beneath the skin, torn down and rebuilt in a singular expiration of energy. You get involved with this energy, his emotions, his honest instinctual out-pour. Yet you wonder how much of it is honest, how much is performed emotion. Or does it matter?" - FaSa
