商品描述: The latest from the renowned painter—Marlene Dumas’s new works respond more than ever to the uncertainty and sensuality of the painting process itself. Allowing the structure of the canvases and the materiality of the paint greater freedom to inform the development of her compositions, the artist has likened the creation of these works to the act of falling in love: an unpredictable and open-ended process that is as filled with awkwardness and anxiety as it is with bliss and discovery. Myths & Mortals documents a selection of new paintings—debuted in the spring of 2018 at David Zwirner, New York—ranging from monumental nude figures to intimately scaled canvases that present details of bodily parts and facial features. Several nearly ten-foot-tall paintings focus on individual figures, including a number of male and female nudes and a seemingly solemn bride, whose expression is obscured behind a floor-length veil. Like the Greek gods and goddesses, the figures in these paintings are at once larger than life and overwhelmingly human. The smaller-scale paintings—referred to by the artist as “erotic landscapes”—present a variety of fragmentary images: eyes, lips, nipples, or lovers locked in a kiss. Evident across all of these works is the artist’s uniquely sensitive treatment of the human form and her constantly evolving experimentation with color and texture. Alongside these new paintings, Dumas presents an expansive series of thirty-two works on paper originally created for a Dutch translation of William Shakespeare’s narrative poem Venus & Adonis (1593) by Hafid Bouazza (2016). Myths & Mortals is accompanied by new scholarship on the artist by Claire Messud and a text by Dumas
著名画家玛琳·杜马斯的最新作品比以往任何时候都更能反映绘画过程本身的不确定性和感性。让画布的结构和绘画的物质性有更大的自由度来指导她的作品的发展，这位艺术家把这些作品的创作比作坠入爱河的行为：一个不可预测的开放的过程，充满了尴尬和焦虑，就像充满了幸福和发现一样。《神话与凡人》（Myths&Vermans）记录了2018年春季在纽约大卫·兹维纳（David Zwirner）首次展出的一系列新画作，从不朽的裸体人物到呈现身体部位和面部特征的紧密缩放画布。几幅近十英尺高的画作聚焦于个人形象，包括一些男女裸体和一个看似庄重的新娘，她们的表情被一层落地的面纱遮住了。像希腊诸神一样，这些画中的人物
