Description

Painting by Greg Drasler, Changing Room (oil on canvas, 80" x 70”, 1994). The image illustrates a key mid-career body of work developed in the 1990s and into the 2000s, when Drasler turned to painting elaborately constructed interiors he called "Cave Painting," which served as metaphors for the interior construction of the self and our relationship to personal, domestic space. The series pairs his interests in contemporary psychoanalytic theory and home design in theatrical, film set-like scenes characterized by human absence, visual conundrums, and trompe l'oeil obfuscation. This work and the work of this series have been publicly exhibited in prominent venues and widely discussed in art and daily press publications.

Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a distinct mid-career body of work that Greg Drasler developed throughout the 1990s and early 2000s: his paintings of elaborately constructed interiors he called "Cave Painting," which serve as metaphors for the interior construction of the self and the human relationship to personal, domestic space. The series pairs interests in contemporary psychoanalytic theory and home design—ornament, wallpaper and fabric—in theatrical, film set-like scenes characterized by human absence, visual conundrums, and trompe l'oeil obfuscation. Critics note this work for its technical facility, illusionistic perspective, blend of periods and motifs, and dreamlike, vaguely unsettling psychological presence. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize a key body in his career, which cannot be adequately conveyed in verbal description alone. Drasler's "Cave Painting" brought him new recognition from major art journals, daily press publications, and art institutions; the series and this work in particular are discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article.
