Barnaby Furnas
Painting/Drawing lecture
Thursday, January 26, 4 pm

Timken Lecture Hall, San Francisco campus

Barnaby Furnas paints archetypal themes – such as love, death, and war – in an idiosyncratic style that is both grounded in the present and deeply aware of its past. Exploding heads, figures walking in forests, rock concerts, battle scenes, and fornicating couples recur as his subjects, and like the Italian Futurists, the representation of speed is requisite to his rendering process. His work was exhibited in the 2004 Whitney Biennial, the Triumph of Painting Saatchi Collection, and will have an exhibition opening at the end of January 2006 at Anthony Meier Fine Arts in San Francisco.
