TRADEMARK
Oil on canvas, (102.1 x 208.3cm), signed verso. Provenance: Rubicon Gallery Dublin (label verso). Adopting the languages and motifs of iconic images, Handleman’s paintings crop, manipulate and invert their sources to formulate abstracted and fragmented fields that resound with the uncanny. Through this re-ordering Handleman draws parallels between media, kitsch and spirituality inspired by American luminists such as Frederic Edwin Church and Fitzhugh Lane. Handleman’s canvasses incorporate light as a dramatic tool, simultaneously configuring associations of grandeur, heraldry and divinity, while underscoring their representation as artificial constructions. Handleman has exhibited extensively in Los Angeles and New York and critical acclaim. He has also exhibited at the Saatchi Gallery, London. He lives and works in New York.
