Publisher Description: Exhibition at Karsten Schubert, London, 24 February - 8 May 2009. Glenn Brown's most recent etchings draw upon portraiture of the past. The three series are the result of the repeated layering of single or multiple portraits by each Urs Graf, Rembrandt and Lucien Freud. Engaging with concepts of duplication and appropriation, the beautiful layered portraits are at once recognizable and completely unfamiliar. An essay by John-Paul Stonard, Contributing Editor of The Burlington Magazine, accompanies reproductions of the twenty-two black and white prints. |
