Sam Schonzeit

Sam Schonzeit grew up in New York City, across the street from Donald Judd’s Spring Street residence, and says that Marfa reminds him of Soho in the seventies. Schonzeit prolifically works in all sizes and mediums, including collage, painting, drawing, and sculpture. His most recent work, a series of watercolors, demonstrates the freedom he finds in Marfa to experiment, in this case with a wide variety of color and technique. Selected by Vanity Fair as “one of twelve artists who make Marfa”, his watercolors capture the expanse of the Marfa landscape with a muted quality of color.
