A Neo-Expressionist in New York City in the latter half of the 20th century, David Salle created paintings that juxtaposed seemingly unrelated images, often sexually oriented, from mass media. He has earned the reputation as one of America's premier figurative artists, incorporating many images including film noir, theater, and erotic reverie into an assemblage of different psyches, moods and genres.
He was born in Norman, Oklahoma, and earned a BFA and MFA from the California Institute (showing 500 of 809 characters). |
