Irving Marcus Mixed Media

1929-2015

Irving Marcus was born in 1929 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He lives and works in Sacramento, California, and is known for his figurative paintings and drawings in ecstatic hues that embody the contradictory forces of romance and disaster. His paintings exhibit rigorous formal innovation, dramatically transforming images culled from the newspaper through numerous studies, often flipping the composition upside down. The effect is both delirious and vertiginous. Marcus’s use of imagery ripped from the headlines and infused with kaleidoscopic color, situates his work at the intersection of Pop art, Imagism and Fauvism. His work is held in many permanent collections, including the de Young Museum in San Francisco, the Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Yale University Art Museum.
