Carroll Dunham November 2015,




These are the most difficult. Funny as they seem the dumbest of figuration-- especially since his departure from a very elegant arc of Modernism.








I love his inventive drawing extending from Picasso. He's the best.
His paintings are filled with problems, funny as they are repeated as formalisms.
But constantly evolving. He covers a huge territory now I can't avoid bumping into myself with my own work.








I thought there is a literal content of deKoonings wild women-- I imagined deKooning
thinking, " gobbling him up as the Universe."






He added these birds and some other stuff I though horrid as I first glimpsed it-- but somehow his form is absorbing it.





This seems a prelude to something more-- continuing.
