Artist Damian Loeb
New Haven, Connecticut, 1970
Loeb's early works were based on collages culled from varied sources, including advertisements, magazines, television, and books. The resulting paintings depict unsettling scenes rendered in a highly representational, seamlessly multi-layered composition. The atmosphere in the finished works expresses a dreamlike and surreal state, as if painted from an emotional memory. They allude to the work of John William Waterhouse or Andrew Wyeth, with surreal components plucked from postmodern culture.
