Neo-expressionist aesthete and, most recently, award-winning feature-film director Julian Schnabel (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly) takes a break from the red carpet with a return to the gallery walls. Schnabel creates dynamic mixed-media hybrids that tackle big themes head-on in the spirit of capricious, contrarian ambition. In this series, the artist has digitally printed a series of found hospital x-rays and blown them up to exaggerated scale. The skeletal fragments, fragile and ethereal, ask appropriately grand questions about the nature of science and identity.
