Alex Paulus
“I guess that's the game” Colorful Contemporary Humorous Ship Landscape Painting

2020

About the Item

Colorful humorous painting by Memphis-based contemporary artist Alex Paulus. The work features a cruise ship with many small figures participating in a variety of activities including swimming, soccer, and sunbathing. The title, "I guess that's the game," references the lone soccer ball that is floating away from the ship, implying that it was the only ball that they had to play with. Currently unframed, but options are available. Artist Biography: Alex Paulus is originally from southeast Missouri, but has been a resident of Memphis, TN since 2007. He received his MFA in 2009 from the Memphis College of Art and is now an Assistant Professor at Southwest Tennessee Community College. His work skillfully combines dark humor and figurative art in his paintings. With a penchant for colorful and imaginative compositions, Paulus introduces us to characters immersed in unconventional scenarios. From famous faces to fictional beings, each artwork invites you to explore the vibrant and thought-provoking world he creates.

    Blue Statue, 2020 "For Blackburn, the Western’s heroic drama, good-versus-evil narrative, and assertive landscape are challenges to face in her work. These aspects of film can overwhelm a painting, thus distancing the viewer from the art. She wants the art to be dominant; “Painting wins,” she declares. She finds this happens when a painting possesses what she terms “classical balance.” By this the artist means that everything is where it needs to be compositionally—nothing can be changed—and “the whole can be seen at once.” Linda Blackburn...
