Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This book presents a selection of paintings and sculptures by the artist Jules de Balincourt, including pieces from group shows as well as his two New York solo shows, 'Land of Many Uses' and 'This is Our Town', at Zach Feuer Gallery (LFL). De Balincourt's works span visions of prewar optimism to a darker vision of the United States' divided socioeconomic terrain. Earlier works included in this catalog are centered around reworked themes of Manifest Destiny; the new frontiers and current acts of environmental, social and political colonialism and imperialism. Newer works that are included in the book explore a tension between leisure, survival, and the polarized paranoia between “us” and “them.” Themes of surveillance, destruction, and looming breaches of privacy comprise this recent series of playfully sinister works. Referring to themes of escape while ambiguously representing the divisions between work and leisure, viewers loom as voyeurs on the edge of these landscapes.
