fun fact:
The artist prefers not to explain the narrative underlying these prints, leaving them open to the viewer’s interpretation.

digital description:
Brooklyn-based painter Dana Schutz is known for large-scale figurative painting, often drawing on narrative and humor. This print portfolio evokes Schutz’s signature subject matter, but translates it to the monochromatic palette of etching. Working with contemporary publisher Two Palms, Schutz created dense, painterly layers of grainy aquatint. Although the ten images suggest a vague story line, the artist left their meaning to the viewer to interpret.

wall description:
Dana Schutz is primarily known for her large-scale figurative paintings that often draw on narrative and humor. In this print series, titled <em>Strangers,</em> Schutz explores her signature subject matter through the monochromatic palette of etching. She creates dense layers of grainy aquatint (a method of printing) that are painterly in nature. The artist prefers not to explain the narrative underlying these prints, leaving them open to the viewer's interpretation. Schutz has local roots, having received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the Cleveland Institute of Art in 2000.
