Dana Schutz

Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris

'My paintings are loosely based on meta-narratives. The pictures float in and out of pictorial genres. Still lives become personified, portraits become events, and landscapes become constructions. I embrace the area between which the subject is composed and decomposing, formed and formless, inanimate and alive.' Dana Schutz. This exhibition is part of a gallery swap between Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris and LFL Gallery, New York.


comunicato stampa

Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin is pleased to present a new exhibition of paintings by Dana Schutz, titled "Self Eaters and the People Who Love Them" from January 10 to February 28. This exhibition is part of a gallery swap between Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris and LFL Gallery, New York.

"My paintings are loosely based on meta-narratives. The pictures float in and out of pictorial genres. Still lives become personified, portraits become events, and landscapes become constructions. I embrace the area between which the subject is composed and decomposing, formed and formless, inanimate and alive. Recently I have been making paintings of sculptural goddesses, transitory still lives, people who make things, people who are made, and people who have the ability to eat themselves. Although the paintings themselves are not specifically narrative, I often invent imaginative systems and situations to generate information. These situations usually delineate a site where making is a necessity, audiences potentially do not exist, objects transcend their function, and reality is malleable."
- Dana Schutz, January 2004
