Barton Lidice Benes Folk Art

American, 1942-2012
Barton Lidice Benes is known for his provocative, symbolic mixed media assemblage made from materials such as paper currency, biological materials and celebrity ephemera, with significant pieces relating to the AIDS epidemic . In the introduction to “Curiosa: Celebrity Relics, Historical Fossils, & Other Metamorphic Rubbish,” John Berendt discusses Benes’ works of this nature. “With some of the relics, the best in my opinion, he goes one step further and creates a shape that symbolizes the relic itself in some way. He calls this series TRANSUBSTANTIATION” (Benes pg. 15).
