It is one of 50 portraits that comprise Profiles in Democracy. Savage in their execution, they are nevertheless heartfelt expressions from the artist – politically, socially, culturally – in some cases featuring text and language in the portrait. In this case, the reference to Paris October 1979, Boulevard de Sebastopol, marks the afternoon Dale Williams was in Paris and sketched the woman in the portrait. From Dale Williams: "Profiles in Democracy is a group of 50 portraits completed in 2019. They are an expression of sorrow at the fracturing ideals that our country now teeters upon. The portraits are mostly – not exclusively – imaginary: a populace viewed from the inside out, people that someone like our current president might call losers. They perhaps “live in gaudy poverty, powerful destitution,” to quote Osip Mandelstam...Category

- "Man Wearing Crown in Water", acrylic, paper, myth, loss, humanity, surrealistLocated in Toronto, Ontario"Man Wearing Crown in Water" is an acrylic paint and mixed media on paper, by Brooklyn, New York artist Dale Williams. It measures 50" high by 38" wide. This artwork is part of a new ongoing series called "Humans Without Warning". Typical of the artist's practice, it is mythic and humanitarian all at once, striking several political and spiritual notes as well. From Dale Williams – "The figures of Humans Without Warning arrive with little forethought. They soon reveal their troubled and antic states of being. They began at the start of the COVID pandemic and explore shared vulnerabilities in a time of political and social disunity. If I am mindful of any of their attributes as I work on them, it is surely how the figures mirror the losses many of us have experienced over the past two years, and the accompanying trudge which often finds us stumbling into numbness." From George Del Barrio (2018), Vanderbilt Republic, Brooklyn NY: "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." Dale Williams has exhibited in the New York City area for over 25 years. He is a 2014 recipient of a Fellowship in Printmaking/Drawing/Book Arts from the New York Foundation for the Arts. His 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...Category
