Glenn Brown

Portraits

John Paul Stonard

ISBN: 9781905464210
Format: Paperback
Publisher:Ridinghouse


 Write a review

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.
