Am I one Death away from being rich?
Studio Michael Andrew Law is pleased to present the first "Am I one Death away from being rich? OPPV Part 1" by the artist.
In this series, Law is in dialogue with artists of the past, such as Da Vinci, Modigliani, Freud, and Manet, among others. Michael Andrew Law’s interpretation of Van Gogh self-portrait from his What if ©Julian Schnabel goes Pop™ series are bright and in your face as soon as you lay eyes on them. Referencing Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh painted a self-portrait in oil on canvas in September 1889. The work, which may have been Van Gogh's last self-portrait, was painted shortly before he left Saint-Rémy-de-Provence in southern France.The painting Law referenced from is now at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris. That self-portrait was one of about 30 van Gogh produced over a 10-year period, and these were an important part of his work as a painter; Van Gogh would paint himself because he often lacked the money to pay for models. He took the painting with him to Auvers-sur-Oise, near Paris, where he showed it to Dr Paul Gachet, who thought it was "absolutely fanatical". Backed by a brilliant colour hand made glitter, are made up of a series of overlapping, differently brush strokes, splatters or drips, reconstructing a famous painting shining with glitter. All These artworks of this series belong to the same cultural whole. The painterly style is playful and fun, and not the first time that artists have taken from popular culture and art history either to make a statement, or simple to have a good time. Law, well known for his photorealism and pop art paintings, has added a twist to them here – instead of copying the representation of these famous images , Law has utilized these images to create a more dynamic picture. These famous paintings represented in such expressive ways take on a joy of their own – they remind us of the easygoing nature of art and the simple pleasures that we took from it. What if ©Julian Schnabel goes Pop™ is a way to recapture that feeling in art. Revisiting a process used earlier in his career, Law designed directly on the computer with the reproductions of these famous images that he collected over the years, then printed on paper and glued onto canvases of various sizes. Then rendered in glitter, thick and dripping paint that almost completely obscures the original references.
