The first character that came into artist Samual Weinberg’s creative consciousness was the “Pinkman” - now Pinkmen as there are several in his body of narrative work. The Pinkmen represent the negative forces in Weinberg’s mystical universe. The Pinkmen are prone to violence. They love to fight. They are stretched into unnerving positions, carelessly lying about left for dead, although they are virtually indestructible. They connect with each other through violence. Their faces are one-eyed expressionless masks. As Weinberg explains “My works are imagined situations or struggles dealing with the nature of meaning and knowledge, which simultaneously navigate the possibilities and place of fiction and narrative in painting.”
