BOXER / Josh Abelow

Edition of 50 signed and numbered copies.

11x14 inch archival pigment print.

The artist Joshua Abelow is perhaps best known for his deceivingly simple paintings featuring stick figures, muscle-bound witches, geometric abstractions and written texts. When all added together, they somehow form a kind of metaphoric self-portrait of the artist himself - often even his own last name is emblazoned into the image - while also commenting on the state of art today.
