About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Drew McSherry created this piece to represent his conflicted view of Catholicism. "The figure is dressed in the elegant gown of a pope but its facial features represent a figure of evil," states Drew. "I want this image to represent the dichotomy that has existed within Catholicism throughout the ages. Catholicism has helped countless people while at the same has been used to oppress."

- Sam Gilliam Handmade Paper "Untitled #34" Acrylic.

It is dated and signed on the lower front. The thick handmade paper is rich with folds and texture and the colors lively. In addition to Acrylic paint on the surface there appears to be imbedded color in the handmade paper which has additional embossed accents. Unframed the piece measures 16 x 14.

A series of formal breakthroughs would soon result in his canonical Drape paintings, which expanded upon the tenets of Abstract Expressionism in entirely new ways. One profound manner was the sculpture aspect of the painting giving it a free flowing expression of pure color. In the latter half of the 1950s, Washington D.C. saw a flourishing of abstract art that emphasized the form-making capabilities of pure color. Known as The Washington Color School, the loosely affiliated group of abstract painters knew each other through various teaching experiences.
