JOHN CURRINTapestry, 2013 Oil on canvas 48 1/8 x 34 inches (117.2 x 86.4 cm) © John Currin Photo by Rob McKeever John Currin Listed Exhibitions (32 Kb)John Currin Bibliography (49 Kb) John Currin's ambitious paintings seduce, repel, surprise, and puzzle.

His masterful technique is achieved through the scrutiny and emulation of the compositional devices, graphic rhythms and refined surfaces of sixteenth and seventeenth century Northern European painting, while his eroticized subjects exist at odds with the popular dialogue and politics of contemporary art. With inspirations as diverse as Old Master portraits, pin-ups, pornography, and B-movies, Currin paints ideational yet challengingly perverse images of women, from lusty nymphs and dour matrons to more ethereal feminine prototypes. Consistent throughout his oeuvre is his search for the point at which the beautiful and the grotesque are held in perfect balance. Glenn Brown.
