About the Item
ABOUT THIS PIECE: The Philosopher's Conquest is from the artists last show, An Artist, A Curator And A Rabbi Walk Into A Bar...,.The title of the exhibition is a meta-joke (a joke within a joke), referencing the exhibited works, which are often, paintings within paintings. Left purposely without a punch line, the title lends itself to the idea of an endless narrative in which anyone can fill in the blanks and take the concept in any direction, or context. Dennis exposes the glamour, popularity, celebrity, absurdity and seductiveness that is the “art world” with skilled precision and artistic prowess.
ABOUT THIS ARTIST: Dennis’ paintings are about human behavior, the psychological, spiritual and physical relationships one has with art. Influenced by masters such as Velasquez, Manet, and Magritte, Marc Dennis cleverly combines methods from various movements throughout the western art historical cannon with widely understood cultural signifiers such as cheerleaders, tattoos, clothing style, and contemporary art, indicative of the current times to create his own symbolic language through the use of modern tropes.
PACKAGING: 30x40" and 40x60" prints are shipped in a special fortified tube to guard against bending or damage. Framed 30x40" prints are shipped via FedEx in a bespoke cardboard box with a fitted interior armature for the frame. We do not frame the extra large, 40x60" print sizes because they are too large to ship without risking damage.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: We ship unframed prints internationally via DHL. The international shipping cost does not include the tax & duties, which will be the responsibility of the customer. Unfortunately, because of the high shipping cost we do not ship framed prints internationally at this time.
