Although I'm not familiar with this painter (and have no idea right now what I like) this looks like one of those "phase" pieces: the artist is trying out a phase of their work on the way to a more personal statement. From here, I would expect a simplifying move, maybe fairly quickly with the faux-structured-reality to give way to something more related to the actual surface of the painting. Something more inward-looking. (Or, maybe I'm just projecting again...)
Looks like an collage of a nth dimensional nilla envelope.
Vertigo rocks. Crystal Palace was allways a challenge for me. Zaxxon too. The depth cues are a little weird.
If you can set up some yarn like Fred Sandback or something and then put it next to a viper lined infinite pit, you'd have your game on because you would fool people into thinking a plane separated them from the pit, when in fact it was just an illusion, and the painting of the pit - 1 point perspective - could conceal real spikes. I could intall it at your home, gratis, but you have to have at least 240,000 square feet of exhibition space.

these make to much "sense", i can see the formal alignment with suprematism, however like alot of the questions of supremtist were tied to the politics of the 1915 - this is coming off more as the 'look of Art'. however, i am not that familar with this Artist i may be missing something. i can see there visual appeal.
anybody see the phil frost show? http://www.jackshainman.com/dynamic/gallery1_exhibit.asp
any thoughts? looks pretty good to me. lovin that oceanic influence --the totem pole -even if he's basically a decorator of skateboards, and psychotically repetitive, I'm still likinit.
I did see. Looks better on the site. Thought they wanted to go whole hog but stopped short of the tiki hut. Why not? Fuck em if they cant take a joke. The works not bad -not just "kitch" - hard to pull off without doing the Urban Outfitter/Pier One colonial dance.
A little too designey but then fake antiquing isnt the way - like crackel finish frames or something can go kitch.
Wall pieces more successfull than the floor pieces?
Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood. He'll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good. Some like to worship on the moon, others are worshipping the sun And there ain't no man righteous, no not one.

ReplyDeleteI admit to findig these paintings a little dry, somehow, despite their fantastical titles. . . I want to like, but cannot.

ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of Kandinsky and the Suprematism movement.

Since a couple of posts have mentioned it, anybody have a link to the artist's earlier "underground abstraction"?

Which is to say, design is fine, but I was looking at some vans the other day - "dream" skulls and circles:

and its a classic case of variation of shapes and stuff.
Composition. Well at some point composition becomes what? An exercise? A ritual?
