Dismemberment

2021

About the Item

Artist: Nikki Maloof Title: Dismemberment Size: 24 x 20 Inches Medium: Archival Pigment Print Edition: 3/25 Year: 2021 Notes: Hand Signed and Numbered by the Artist in Pencil. Custom Framed to fit in a Flat White Frame. In Nikki Maloof’s portraits of subtly anthropomorphized bats, tigers, birds, and moths—and in her still lifes featuring cooked duck, wide-eyed sardines, and other would-be meals—animals project human emotions and anxieties. While a colorful, tropical setting suffuses many of her paintings, creating a warm palette and feeling for her emotional avatars, Maloof’s figures often appear wary, confused, or sinister. Her compositions have drawn on historical sources including Dutch vanitas paintings, and newspapers and their ominous headlines appear throughout the artist’s oeuvre; Maloof juxtaposes the solemn and the absurd, and the animal and human worlds, with wry humor. She completed her BFA at Indiana University before obtaining her MFA in painting and printmaking from the Yale School of Art in 2011. Since then, she has exhibited in New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Milan, and Copenhagen, among other cities. Exhibited: Nino Meir & Jack Hanley Gallery

  • Pay Nothing
    Located in London, GB
    Kenny Schachter "Pay Nothing". Archival digital print on wove paper. Published in 2020. Edition of 60. Hand signed and numbered by the artist, verso. ‘At the height of Covid, various activist groups arose to protect artists and others from unlawful evictions for non-payment of rent due to their lack of earning capacity by an economy that all but ground to a halt—other than for the multinationals that always seem to prosper in times of crisis. One such grassroots advocacy initiative in April of 2020, was CANTPAYMAY which I spotted on artist Nicole Eisenman’s Instagram feed by way of a poster she created which proclaimed: “RENT STRIKE! STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH THOUSANDS OF NEW YORKERS ON RENT STRIKE DURING #CANTPAYMAY. WITH MILLIONS OF NEW YORKERS OUT OF WORK, WE CAN AND MUST #CANCELRENT. SIGN THE RENT STRIKE PLEDGE TO JOIN THE MOVEMENT!” Pay Nothing is an appropriation of Ed Ruscha’s 2003 painting Pay Nothing Until April; though Ruscha attempts to disclaim meaning in his text works, it clearly references the loaded notion of having to pay-up in April, which is when both State and Federal taxes are owed across the country, as all US taxpayers are only painfully all too aware. “Says Ruscha: ‘I’m empty headed in many ways, and don’t know why I follow what I follow. Like most people, I operate on an automatic mode, and everything is an involuntary reflex. Logic flies out of the window when you’re making a picture, at least it does with me. And thank God it does.’” @tate In the context of the Covid pandemic, Pay Nothing signifies the fact that if a population is deprived of the means to earn a living, we still must eat and have a roof over our heads to feed and shelter ourselves and families. For, if we don’t have the ready capacity to provide, as Malcom X...

  • Burnt Place #3
    Located in London, GB
    Burnt Place 03 - After the fire swept through, the forest was left scorched and barren. The ground is still warm and the unstirring air is thick with the scent of charred wood. Scorched, lifeless pines stand solemn and mournful in the shadows of the Burnt Place. About the Twilight's Path project: "We spend our lives surrounded by the security of possessions, relationships and roles, but our futures hold nothing so substantial; one day we must all enter into true not- knowing - into a dark, unconscious place."
