A trip to Currin-land is like a science-fiction movie, in which familiar things - Old Master works by Bruegel and Courbet, the Rococo idylls of Boucher and Fragonard, girly photos from 10960s men's magazines and cheerful ads for wholesome American products - are transformed into figurative paintings that border on the freakish. In John Currin's universe, everythings looks both commonplace and fantastic, like Norman Rockwell paintings as seen through a fun-house mirror. Read More

Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good. John Currin's paintings sit at the crossroads where Old Master painting technique and 20th-century kitsch collide. His figurative paintings mix humour with traditional painterly skills and have earned him comparisons with artists ranging from Breugel to Rockwell. This monograph is a major survey of Currin's career, featuring his work since 1989. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
