Marc Dennis

"Marc Dennis draws on art history, particularly Baroque painting to address the theme of violence...As sources for his work, the artist draws on classical mythology, biblical narratives and Native American customs...The results are powerful works that affirm life's beauty as well as address its pain. " -Excerpt from Artnews, 1993

Artist's Statement
With a light-handed use of narrative and metaphor, I’d like to think that my style of realism, in its lucid objectivity, results in a kind of nervous beauty and rational disquiet.
