About the Item
This is not a painting. What is a painting? Is it the brushstrokes of pigment on canvas that make a painting a painting? If you're a caveman, a painting is clay on the wall of a cave. If you're Michelangelo, a painting is a fresco on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. If you're Lichtenstein, a painting is dots of color on a canvas. And if you're Warhol, paintings are screen printed images of celebrities. Can they also be an idea in your mind? This painting breaks our understandings of what a painting can be. Firstly, the brushstrokes of black pigment smeared on a canvas don't exist. They were digitally printed. Secondly, the canvas doesn't exist. It's a maple board. It's not signed, so does it exist as a work of art? There's nothing about this painting that says it's a painting, yet it IS a painting. But, this is not a painting.

View AllEarly 20th Century Southern American Folk Art Painting
Located in Chicago, IL
A captivating and intriguing early 20th century Southern American folk art panel, found in Mississippi, depicting a figure with what appears to be African tribal headgear, and wearing a white collared shirt with black suit jacket. The line work and attention to detail is extraordinary and mysterious, with the artist choosing to incorporate a natural knot in the board to form the mouth of the figure, and the left half of the drawing showing shading, but seemingly left unfinished. The frame is not terribly old, and is constructed from splatter-painted boards...
