About the Item

Marc Swanson In the Garden, 2017 graphite and collage on paper 17 x 14 in (43.2 x 35.6 cm) paper size 24 7/8 x 21 7/8 x 1 1/2 in (63.2 x 55.6 x 3.8 cm) frame size The duality between the authenticity and theatricality of the self is central to Marc Swanson's new body of drawings, collage and small sculptures. Raised in a small town in New Hampshire, but having lived much of his adult life in cities, Swanson is exploring the tension between the urban and the rural. He interweaves natural worlds (deer, mountains, waterfalls) with depictions of urbane individuals to investigate the complexities of gender identities, theatricality and self-presentation. Swanson has incorporated collaged images from his own vintage book and magazine collection to create a restrained melange of landscapes, romanticized portraits, and hand-drawn text from his own diary entries. The works present a language from the past; one can read the visual conventions of Hollywood film stars, stage sets, and marbled book edges, among others. The artist intends for the text — sometimes wrapping around images or filling in white space — to serve as a visual gesture rather than to deliver a specific narrative. These visual suggestions and cues combine to create a poetic sense of comfortable intimacy. Here, Swanson samples, re-works, and re-presents his own visual vocabulary.
