Marty Greenbaum (*1934 in New York City) is an American painter, mixed media assemblage and book artist.[1]
Life
Marty Greenbaum grew up in Coney Island, Brooklyn.[2] In 1956 he attended the University of Arizona with a basketball scholarship and graduated with a Bachelor's degree. He received his Master's degree in art studies in 1991 from Brooklyn College.
Greenbaum is best known for his mixed media assemblage, painting and artist books[3][4] “At a time when most of his contemporaries were calculating how to harden their edges or revamp their styles with the window dressings of Camp, this primal mixed media whizkid from Coney Island labored like an entranced shaman, to conjure up zanily beautiful art brut paintings and weird, wax-drizzled voodoo alter assemblages that resembled nothing so much as the ritual artifacts of some lost psychedelic tribe!”[5]
Greenbaum appeared in three films: Hallelujah the Hills in 1963 by Adolfas Mekas,[6][7][8] Life Dances On,'[9][10] in 1980 by Robert Frank, and The Present in 1996 by Robert Frank. Between 1962 and 1965 he took part in happenings by Allan Kaprow and experimental dance by Yvonne Rainer[11]. Greenbaum authored his own happenings, i.e. Coney Island Carny, including artists such as Eddie Barton, Remy Charlip, Paul Kaplow, Paul Krasner, Al Hanson, Ed Blair, Allen Ginsburg, John Hamond, Eddie Rabkin, Lou Gosset, Renee Renee, Allan Kaprow, Phyllis Yampolsky, Thomas Hoving, Jackie Ferrara, Peter Schumann, Jim Bell, Bill Marshall, Corla Lopez, Bruce Waite, and Mark di Suvero,[12] as well as organizing the Hall of Issues[13][14] with Phyllis Yampolsky at The Judson Memorial Church.
Greenbaum had several teaching positions in the New York City public school system and was a member of the Creative Artists Public Service program twice, he also participated in various exhibitions with book objects.[15] His work is in several public collections including The Art Institute of Chicago,[16] Artists' Books, The Brooklyn Museum Collection,[4]Lannan Museum, Santa Fe, NM, The Chrysler Museum, Norfolk, VA, Madison Art Center, Madison, WI, and more.[citation needed]
