KEER TANCHAK
Artist Bio
Keer Tanchak paints neo-Rococo vignettes onto aluminum rounds, aligning
the frivolity of Old Regime France with contemporary 'bourgeoisie ennui.'
Tanchak depicts musket bearing soldiers and high society ladies in
candy-bright colors with the airy brushstrokes of the privileged and
beautiful. Glamour is at once revered and parodied as grandiose gowns are
juxtaposed with artificial blocks of floating color. Bridging the
postmodern and pre-Revolution, Tanchak casts a suspicious eye on a culture
obsessed with physical beauty, while making it look unrelentingly yummy.
Ms. Tanchak will be exhibiting her work in April 2010 at Johansson Projects
