About the Item
Created with oil on panel, and using her non-dominant hand, the performers series reveals the rich brushwork and deft confidence with which Audrey Anastasi paints her compelling images of women.
“At the heart of my studio practice is my quest to reach what is emotionally and aesthetically essential, by furiously producing at the intersection of disciplined control and randomized instinct, to work with abandon, and to counteract preconceptions and inhibitions. As a feminist artist, my first commitment is to painting other women, the human face, and figure. Whether working with figurative descriptions or with the abstract use of materials, I approach all my subjects directly and with abandon. Additionally, in my quest to discover and reveal what is most essential, the observational drawing aspect of these images is created with my non-dominant left hand.”
Audrey Anastasi

- Illustrated ManBy Paton MillerLocated in Sag Harbor, NYA mixed media painting showing a seated man with tattoos. In “Illustrated Man” we see a single figure, covered in tattoos; portraits, designs, and patterns coat the man's skin from torso to fingertips. His face remains pure, unscathed from any ink marks; clear-headed and gazing forward. Behind him, Miller presents an obscure tapestry of civilization, an empire of sandy structures under a lapis lazuli night sky. Winding roads lead to city walls, while shadows and foundation-lines melt into creatures; a toothy alligator appears out of a stone façade...Category
