Snowman by Gary Hume

1996 screen print on feltGary Hume represented Britain at the 1999 Venice Bienalle and is often associated with the YBA’s or Young British Artists, the best known of whom is Damien Hurst. Hume’s paintings and prints, bothrepresentational and non-representational, can be recognized by their flat appearance. The flatness, choice of imagery and color have lead to some of Hume’s work being described as melancholic. In addition to screen prints, the artist has also created a series of snowmen sculptures, up to 10' high, finished with a high-gloss enamel in colors like soft pink, black and pine.Like it? Tell us what you think. We’re not looking for scholarly studies just...
