Untitled
A large-scale mixed-media work from Rashid Johnson's iconic series featuring expressive, mask-like faces rendered in thick black soap and wax with vigorous, swirling gestural marks. The owl-like visage with two circular eye forms emerges from heavy impasto against a splattered white ground, embodying Johnson's exploration of anxiety, identity, and art-historical dialogue with Abstract Expressionism. The raw materiality and emotional intensity make this a powerful example of Johnson's ongoing engagement with portraiture and abstraction.
