About the Item

5-color silkscreen on 2-ply museum board. edition of 60 hand signed and numbered. American, 1955-2014 Born in 1955, Tom Slaughter’s career began in 1983 with his first exhibition at the Drawing Center in New York City. Since, he has had more than 20 solo shows in cities including San Francisco, Miami, London, Vancouver, Cologne and Fukuoka, Japan. Slaughter had worked extensively with master printer, Jean Russell at Durham Press, creating numerous limited edition prints using his signature bold primary colors. He worked as a printmaker in collaboration with Durham Press for 25 years, and his editions are included in the permanent collections of MoMA and the Whitney Museum of American Art. He illustrated twelve children’s books, including “Boat Works,” “Do You Know Which Ones will Grow? ” – a 2011 Notable American Library Association book of the year – and collaborations with Marthe Jocelyn such as “ABC x 3,” “Same Same,” and “123.” These books have been translated into six languages. Slaughter also worked for the last ten seasons as the Art Director for the New Victory Theater. As a designer, he created everything from t-shirts to skateboard decks, beach towels as well as a line of wallpaper for Cavern Home. Tom Slaughter, an artist, designer, and illustrator, passed away on October 24, 2014. In his Pop-inflected prints, drawings, illustrations, paintings, and design work Tom Slaughter exudes a love of life. He makes few distinctions between his various artistic endeavors; “I paint, draw, cut paper, use a computer, and even an iPhone—it’s all the same hand,” he says. In a 2001 print series, Slaughter reveals his contemplative side, with brushy, greyscale renditions of trees, such as Three Trees, which features spare, silhouetted tree trunks that contrast with the raucous vitality of other works like The Old Neighborhood (2001). Small bursts of leafy foliage are graceful adornments, and the image is given an intimately small scale on the page. Slaughter cites Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, and Alexander Calder as influences on his practice.
