Juicy with colour, rich in sensuality, and obscenely beautiful, Marilyn Minter’s work is built for seduction. Executed in high-gloss enamel paint, her larger-than-life paintings are dazzling, hyper-realistic concoctions filled with body parts, drips, and splashes. No less voluptuous are her photos and videos, set in the same wet, wild world of her imagining. Determined to be first fine artist to advertise on TV, Minter’s first video, plugging her painting show “100 Food Porn,” showed on Nightline, Arsenio Hall, and Letterman. “Green Pink Caviar,” her latest video from 2009, has shown in galleries all over the world, video screens in Times Square, and was used by Madonna to open the Sticky & Sweet concert tour. www.greenpinkcaviar
