Abstract
My thesis investigates Belgian artist Marthe Wéry’s oeuvre, determines art-historical contexts for her paintings, and examines the many milestones that exemplify her work. Her monochromatic paintings, radical experiments with paint, empirical way of thinking, and exploration of architecture defend her robust career and demand involvement in today’s art historical conversation.
