Description
David Lynch: The Unified Field brings together ninety-five paintings, drawings, and prints from 1965 to the present, showcasing the artist's extensive body of work. Organized in collaboration with the artist, this catalog features many works that have rarely been seen in public, including early pieces from his critical years in Philadelphia. The exhibition highlights Lynch's recurring motif of the home as a site of violence, memories, and passion, as well as the odd, tender, and mincing aspects of relationships. The book offers a substantial response to dealer Leo Castelli's comment when he viewed Lynch's work in 1987, "I would like to know how he got to this point; he cannot be born out of the head of Zeus." Published in association with the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, David Lynch: The Unified Field provides a unique insight into the artist's studio practice and his development as a visual artist.
