Alex Israel - Modern & Contemporary Art: Online Auction, New York New York Wednesday, February 26, 2025 | Phillips
  • “I like the physicality of my city, its surfaces, textures and patina. Scenic painting is meant to be seen through the lens; on a screen. It's usually in the background and oftentimes it's blurry, or seen through a window. I like the idea of presenting scenic painting in the flesh, directly to the viewer, inverting its position from cinematic illusion to physical, Hollywood thing.”
    —Alex Israel
