About the Item

Hyperreal oil painting of a pinewood board with wood knot detail by Anthony Adcock- Oil on copper **No wood was used in this painting - It is an oil painting on copper panel. Everything, including the wood grain and pencil lines, is hand-painted with oil paint. Anthony Adcock's hyperreal oil paintings and sculptures literally resemble the objects found on a job site: pieces of worn plywood, rusty I-beams, scrap rebar, work tools, etc., and are often dismissed as debris and not actual artwork. Adcock is a superb example of a Conceptual Realist who utilizes realism as a point of departure, focusing on the essence of the subject matter rather than verisimilitude. He creates his artwork by synthesizing the knowledge gleaned from three generations of builders, his comprehensive understanding of the trade, and an uncompromising studio practice dedicated to the advancement of realism. By combining his expert understanding of construction with the intellectual rigor of abstract painting via realism, Adcock's artwork oscillates between amazement and absurdity.   Hyperrealism, realism, realist, conceptual realism, trompe l'oeil, conceptual art, conceptual realism, construction, wood, plywood, building materials, oil painting, contemporary art, abstract art, abstraction, abstract painting, tromp l'oeil painting

  • Wonder, or The Plane of the Invisible - blue trompe l'oeil oil painting
    By Anthony Mastromatteo
    Located in Sag Harbor, NY
    In the trompe l'oeil panel painting, "Wonder, or the Plane of the Invisible," a comic cut-out of Wonder Woman sits between two spatial planes—the top, very flat plane is cut out in the shape of a plane as a play Wonder Woman's famous "Invisible Plane." The silly way the comic book character would sit in an imaginary seat flying through the air would force the artist to wonder, “how do you represent an invisible plane”. Here, we see a bright blue canvas, sprinkled with glittery paillettes; an outline of an airplane beneath an outline of the word “SKY”, an infantile depiction of the sun made of masking tape, and finally, the hero, Wonder Woman, her comic clipping taped onto the invisible plane. A very believable, naturalist blue sky with puffy white clouds is visible through the letters and the invisible airplane. It feels like we can reach into the invisible plane to find the natural world…yet atop the plane is an old cartoon of the first female superhero. She overlaps the realistic atmosphere, and even casts a shadow onto it. The planet’s orbit is dedicated to the sun, and all living things need the light to survive…yet this most important element is made up of a crude array of tape strips, asymmetrical, and even torn in-half. This sun refers back to Pablo Picasso’s sun...
