Acrylic on unstretched, cut canvas
54 1/2 inches square
I came up with this drawing by first drawing a Grateful Dead bear in blackface. The synthesis of oppressive cultural imagery with an icon of an ostensibly harmonious, peaceful cultural movement was amusing in a twisted way, so I started brainstorming of what other kinds of symbols to pervert the bear with. The end product ends up resembling Buer, and I'm okay with that. It's an extra layer of hilarity.
The title was somewhat determined by the [America] theme of the show I made this piece for. Given the context of the show, the piece's reference to nazism(an oft-quoted quality of our political system according to some), nazism's concept of the Ăśbermensch, and a shared last name, I got the random idea to reference Laurie Anderson's "United States". Specifically, I borrowed the titles from two songs from Anderson's work, "O Superman" and "Language is a Virus (from Outer Space)".
No real intended meaning aside from the humor that results from combining two extremes and then kinda cherrypicking references as they occur to me to add more layers to the initial gag. This was for art-nerd fun.

Je sais, c'est gonflé d'afficher de travers ( de traverse ) mais ! Il existe le mouvement shaped canvas en peinture ou l'objet représenté devient l'objet pictural ...

I'd had this idea for about 2 years before I finally painted the damn thing. This was one of my first pieces using a grisaille foundation to guide the application of color; I much prefer that process.

Working with shaped panels is relatively new, while some modern/post modern painters used shaped canvases in the last 50 years (frank stella), leaving a vacant space to show the wood grain seemed to be a good idea to work into the shape. Have done several more pieces since in unidentifiable shapes.
