Based in New York City, Alexis Rockman creates botanical, insect, and mammal studies that create a dialogue between art and science. Many of his works are "creepy-crawly" perverse such as one of his better known pieces, "The Ecotourist" in 1997 that shows his own decaying body in the rain forest with exotic animals making off with his private body parts.
One of his paintings titled "The Farm," was reproduced on an electronic billboard on the corner of Lafayette and Houston streets in New (showing 500 of 2510 characters). |
