Description
Hybrid portraiture of humanoid monsters and existential figures
This book presents new paintings by acclaimed New York-based artist Jason Fox (born 1964), along with sketches, source material and works on paper made between 2006 and 2016. Fox paints hybrid portraits-humanoid monsters and existential figures-often posed behind a canvas, as though in the act of their own creation.
In an interview with the artist Joe Bradley included in this volume, Fox describes his influences and subject matter, which range from comic books, rock icons and minimalism, to his dog, Duncan, and former president Barack Obama. Published on the occasion of Square Cave, the artist's solo exhibition at Canada gallery in New York, this book provides insight into Fox's multivalent and psychedelic studio practice.
