Apocryphal Now presents Jim Kempner's characteristically sharp visual wit through a richly layered screenprint in colors, its title invoking both sacred myth and the hallucinatory fever of Francis Ford Coppola's landmark film in a single compressed gesture. Printed on the substantial, archival-quality surface of B.F.K. Rives paper, the work demonstrates the meticulous attention to registration and chromatic precision that defines Kempner's printmaking practice. At approximately 102.6 by 71.1 centimeters, the composition commands a meaningful physical presence, allowing the full tonal and textural range of the screenprint medium to assert itself across a generous field. Produced in 2014, this impression is numbered 36 from an edition of 80, situating it comfortably within a well-documented, finite run that balances accessibility with long-term collectability. Kempner, a New York-based artist with deep roots in both studio practice and the contemporary print world, has cultivated a body of work that engages popular culture, art history, and linguistic play with equal fluency. Apocryphal Now exemplifies that sensibility, fusing high-contrast graphic energy with layers of meaning that reward sustained looking. The work is hand-signed by the artist, and collectors will find it well-suited to professional framing given its scale and the clean, stable surface of the Rives support.
