About the Item

Ulysses I, 2011 Acrylic on canvas (Signed on reverse) 7 9/10 H × 7 9/10 W in. 20 H × 20 W cm The artwork "Ulysses I" was part of the solo show “Epic”. This exhibition, as the artist confessed, “is about Ulysses and I, Alexandru Rădvan, about the strong relationship between us. For me, Ulysses is not a mythological character, he really exists, he is alive and lives in me since I was a child and I was being read from the book «The Adventures of Ulysses»”. The total identification of the artist Alexandru Rădvan with the Ulysses character generates an ample series of drawings, cement reliefs, paintings and large size sculptures. They underline a personal odyssey which reflects the moral and physical portrait, their deeds and relations regarding the environment in relative objectivity.

"Idiot Wind, Sweet Reason", acrylic painting, duality, politics, humanity
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Idiot Wind, Sweet Reason" is an acrylic painting on canvas measuring 24" high by 36" wide. Again cutting to the quick, Dale Williams posits our best and worst instincts as a duality, and that duality as a confrontation. There's nowhere to hide in any of William's paintings, that's part of the charge coming off his canvases. That's particularly true with this painting – as hideous as these personnages may be in Idiot Wind and Sweet Reason, we recognize their struggle for grace. Press Release 2018: "Williams acknowledges a large range of influences on his vision: the moral lessons embodied in the works of 17th century engraver Jacques Lagniet, the darkling phantasms and tragic reportage of Goya’s Caprichos and Disasters of War, and the personal mythologizing of the late paintings of Philip Guston. Such works echo throughout Williams social surrealist re-visioning." – George Del Barrio, Vanderbilt Republic, Brooklyn NY Dale Williams has exhibited in the New York City area for the past 25 years. He is a 2014 recipient of a Fellowship in Printmaking/Drawing/Book Arts from the New York Foundation for the Arts. His most recent one-person show, “America Now Suite,” which re-visioned American history in service of the civic imagination, was held at Gowanus Loft, Brooklyn in October 2018. A selection of portraits from “America Now Suite” was included in the BRIC Biennial, Winter/Spring 2019. His portrait of Osip Mandelstam...

"Outskirts", acrylic painting, duality, nature, humanity, chaos, dream, myth
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Outskirts" is an acrylic painting with collage elements on canvas, measuring 38" high by 44" wide. There's nowhere to hide in any of William's paintings, that's part of the charge coming off his canvases. That's particularly true with this painting – we immediately see that everything is wrong, hands coming out of trees, a human head on a horse or dog. Yes it's Mythic but even there it's wrong, the legs are impossibly crossed. In fact little of this painting can be true and yet here it is. Out of control, left over and residual ways and means of living life. Who or what are we now?

"Falling Figure", acrylic painting, red devil, dream, myth, poetry, flight
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Falling Figure" is an acrylic painting on canvas measuring 16" high by 16" wide. The title may be somewhat disingenuous – falling figure indeed – with cloven hoofs, red skin and horns on head suggesting a demon's fall from grace. The demon? Mythic and humanitarian all at once, the figure appears to be wearing stylish shorts and gives the thumbs up sign on the way down. Perhaps an all too familiar predicament as we tumble toward our own destinies...
