About the Item
Marc Dennis' paintings merge 19th-century traditional American Western painting, Lakȟóta oral traditions, and Jewish mysticism with his fantastical imagination, and other life experiences.
The artist's blend of visual cultures is exemplified in this particular work, which depicts a war horse galloping across a night sky. Painted with blended iconography of pop culture figures and traditional Native American sigils of protection, this majestic stallion seems to posses an otherworldly presence.
