About the Item
Pol Vans is not only a painter, but an art project as a whole. It goes beyond the final object to question the relation between the individual and his artistic expressions. Vans was born as the alter ego of another artist who remains anonymous (for now...). This performative gesture aims to consider how the artist as an individual relates to his own production. Is it possible to disassociate the piece from its author's subjectivity? Can someone create meaningful artwork from a fictional self? Literature has always embraced this kind of investigation, building heteronyms to explore the multiple dimensions of the ego as an expressive engine. How can painting also open this option? Pol Vans chooses the language of abstraction, color, and a certain reference to the unconscious. Abstraction plays an open field in this kind of experimentation. It allows an intuitive and almost automatic painting that takes the form of the mind's flux of images. As the Surrealists did in their literary works, Vans lets his unconscious generate material without going through the ego's filter. This way, he tries to create without the burdens of subjectivity, which comes along with oppressive social norms. The artist's identity will remain anonymous until he reaches his desired results. Maybe in ten or fifteen years, he'll uncover his real name and publish the personal outcomes of this thrilling experience.

- Springtime ResurrectionBy Ronnie LandfieldLocated in Austin, TXAcrylic on canvas. Signed, titled, and dated on verso. 86 x 74 in. 87.25 x 75.25 in. (framed) Please note: Our framing studio could not accommodate the scale of this work, so it is being sold as-acquired. The canvas is housed in an original “studio strip” frame installed by the artist. Please see condition notes below for additional details and an assessment of condition. Provenance Steve Chase Design, Palm Springs, CA Ronnie Landfield was born in the Bronx, NY on January 9, 1947 - the same day as his older brother. As a teenager, he was encouraged to pursue a career as an artist, subsequently creating his first real paintings around the age of 14. He was particularly influenced by a Life magazine article from 1961 on the Abstract Expressionists, most notably: Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Hans Hofmann, Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still, Robert Motherwell and Franz Kline. After stints at the Art Students League, the Kansas City Art Institute, the San Francisco Art Institute, and the University of California at Berkeley, Landfield’s professional career as a painter began in New York in 1965. The following year, after completing a major series of hard-edge border paintings, success as a painter began to materialize. The famous architect and collector Philip Johnson and the collector Robert Scull each acquired large paintings works, as did the Sheldon Memorial Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska. In 1967, Landfield was invited to participate in the Whitney Annual at the end of the year. His work attracted considerable attention, and he was invited to participate in important group exhibitions at the Bykert, Bianchini, and Park Place Galleries in New York. Landfield joined the David Whitney...Category
