Julian Schnabel — Gothic Run Riot; and Billy's First Portrait of God
Julian Schnabel

Gothic Run Riot; and Billy's First Portrait of God

Two monumental prints that exemplify Schnabel's raw, maximalist sensibility, combining photo-lithograph, woodcut, etching, and screenprint techniques to create densely layered surfaces that pulse with gestural energy. The works reflect his signature fusion of high and low visual culture, where fragmented imagery, bold mark-making, and clashing textures collide in a manner that is simultaneously visceral and mythic. Printed in colors on wove paper with full margins, these prints extend Schnabel's painterly ambitions into the realm of printmaking with commanding presence.
