About the artwork
Rendered in Young’s signature hand-pulled screen printing technique and finished with a shimmering veil of diamond dust, the work is both dazzling and deeply moving.
The contrast between Marilyn’s legendary beauty and the raw expression of sorrow encapsulates Young’s masterful exploration of fame's duality—how adoration can conceal loneliness, and how image can both illuminate and obscure the individual. The glittering surface acts like a screen or a mask, inviting viewers to reflect on the cost of being worshipped yet misunderstood.
Russell Young
Russell Young’s alluring, larger-than-life portraits of iconic cultural figures explore both glamorous American mythologies and their dark underbellies of crime, addiction, and death. His silkscreen paintings portray celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and Kurt Cobain; the artist recontextualizes their iconic appearances in high-contrast palettes, often interweaving them with diamond dust to heighten their glittery, sensual allure. In other works, shellac drips and smears in a visceral, wound-like manner. Young has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Shanghai, Vienna, and Los Angeles. His work belongs in the collections of the Albertina Museum, the Cornell Art Museum, the Saatchi Collection, and the White House Collection. Celebrities including Brad Pitt, Elizabeth Taylor, and Kanye West have all bought his work. Young has also directed music videos, and in recent years, Dutch Golden Age paintings of flowers have become a frequent motif.
