About the Item
"The Shame Agent, Part II" is a commanding large-scale figurative work by acclaimed contemporary artist Ian Shults. This dramatic composition merges the raw emotional tension of cinematic noir with the fragmented energy of Neo-Pop abstraction. Painted in oil and acrylic on canvas, the surface pulses with sharp contrasts between smooth photorealistic rendering and expressive, gestural mark-making.
Executed in a stark grayscale palette punctuated by crisp lilac linear elements, the painting depicts a surreal triptych scene of glamour, tension, and disconnection. A bold female figure—confident yet introspective—anchors the left panel, while mirrored vignettes of intimate encounters and symbols of danger (a snarling tiger, a staged embrace) unfold across the composition. Shults’ use of split framing and disruptive graphic overlays invites the viewer to question perception, memory, and narrative truth.
The physicality of the work is striking—the canvas features areas of velvety smoothness contrasted with dynamic surface textures, scraped layers, and bold linework that traverse the image plane. The scale alone, at 60 x 48 inches (152 x 122 cm), ensures the piece commands attention, serving as a bold statement for modern luxury interiors, gallery-style residential spaces, or high-concept commercial environments.
This artwork speaks directly to collectors of contemporary figurative art, Pop Surrealism, and Postmodern realism, as well as interior designers seeking a powerful focal point that fuses narrative depth with high visual impact.
