Georg Baselitz, Dr. Dumouchel (Remix), 2007. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Georg Baselitz

\n\n

Reflecting on his Remix paintings, Georg Baselitz has explained that “I try to retain one thing. The original stimulus. It was a different painter who did those earlier works. It was me, to be sure, but in a different spirit with a different intention.” Executed in 2007, the large-scale Dr. Dumouchel (Remix) is a key work from the series. Revisiting some of his most provocative compositions via photographs and catalogues, the German artist generated an innovative new body of work which addressed questions of permanence and change, originality and our relationship to history. This self-conscious approach to reference evokes an almost Hegelian approach to repetition: over time, and through the dialectic process of revisiting and recombining forms and negating others, Baselitz’s work continues to resolve itself. Featuring a caricature of Marcel Duchamp, Dr. Dumouchel (Remix) is an update of an earlier body of paintings, including Frisch verliebt – M. D, Melodie, and Im Walde von Blainville. In revising this motif over several iterations across the small series, Baselitz paired the amorous couple with patterned backgrounds that seem to nod to certain art historical touchstones: here, perhaps, a reference to another great self-revisionist, Edvard Munch, who returned to the purple-flecked wallpaper of his Weeping Women composition several times over his career.

\n\n

\n\n

Cecily Brown, Untitled, 2012. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Cecily Brown

\n\n

Key to the musical concept of the remix is how the contemporary artist interprets their predecessors – something British painter Cecily Brown examines brilliantly in the dialogue struck between Untitled and a visual history of the female nude. As the artist explains, “You’ve got the same old materials – just oils and a canvas – and you’re trying to do something that’s been done for centuries. And yet, within those limits, you have to make something new or exciting.” The traditional nude ensemble gives Brown remarkable scope for a promiscuous blend of Old Master and Pop culture references, synthesized through the artist’s sensual textures. Taking clear pleasure in the physical properties of oil paint itself, Brown transforms her canvases into restless and shifting surfaces that hover between figuration and abstraction, producing fluid forms that combine the fleshy excess of Peter Paul Rubens and the gestural immediacy of Willem de Kooning. This approach eschews critical distance in favor of immediacy, encountering these traditional images and their creators head-on with new, reimagined significance.

\n\n

\n\n

Sarah Ball, Untitled, 2017. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, London.

\n\n

Sarah Ball

\n\n

An underappreciated aspect of any remix is rediscovery, and a constituent element of that rediscovery stems from an artist finding the universal appeal of something which was previously forgotten, disused, or out of favor. It is often the process by which life returns to what never had time to become a ghost, and this alchemy is readily apparent in Sarah Ball’s phantasmic work. Her portraits of anonymous sitters feature evasive, implacable facial expressions. Her choice of muted palettes and monochrome backgrounds work in contrast to the presence of her subjects, which the artist often sources from newspaper archives and social media. This ambiguity between time and space, together with the way Ball renders their features – some in lifelike detail, some blended into the background – gives an otherworldly feel to her work, and yet, still retains the human elements that transcend their stillness. The male figure in Untitled comes to us from an old baseball card, a family photograph in the attic, or an immigration card, and his past and future are a mystery to the viewer, but given its almost archetypical style, we can layer our own narratives over the image, creating an identity that Ball’s practice compels us to confront – how the uncanny comes about is just as much a cultural reference point as how we interpret it.

\n\n

\n\n

Elizabeth Peyton, Evan at the Reading Festival 1993, 1997. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Elizabeth Peyton

\n\n

A portrait of Evan Dando, the frontman of ‘90s grunge band the Lemonheads, Evan at the Reading Festival 1993 is emblematic of Elizabeth Peyton’s lyrical work. Incorporating sweeping brushwork, intimate sincerity, and emotional verve, the work collapses distinctions between realism and expressionist styles, and also between the public performance of celebrity and the deeply personal relationships that we forge with them. One of several portraits of Dando, he is shown here quietly contemplative, his long hair swept from his luminous face as he reads from the red book in his hands. Elbows leaning on crossed legs, his shoulders gently curved in concentration it is an image of quiet introspection and unguarded honesty that takes on the ethereal quality of a Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece. Using second-had images of our most iconic musicians, Peyton’s approach to her compositions suits this musical analogy, remixing her found material in new, personally meaningful ways. Peyton’s use of celebrities as idealized forms brilliantly discerns no real distinction between those she knows personally and those she knows from history. Classical art, particularly the mythmaking aspect of sublime but fictional subjects, creates larger-than-life fantasy, whereas Peyton brings the living legend – the rock star – and places them in their cultural milieu in a quiet, unshrouded manner, far from Andy Warhol’s fascination with celebrity, or the unimaginable perfection of the Pre-Raphaelite model in favor of history and its place in the now. “[People] are the way the world moves,” she explains, “and they contain their time.”

\n\n

\n\n

Emily Mae Smith, Raft on Siren Sea, 2017. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Emily Mae Smith

\n\n

Placing itself in direct dialogue with the fin de siècle arts periodical The Studio through the appropriation of its title and typeface, Raft on Siren Sea highlights American artist Emily Mae Smith’s subversive response to established art historical narratives with another element of remixing that requires a mix of deft skill and clarity of purpose: the parody. The work blends the graphic quality of Surrealism and the Chicago Imagists in a manner that feeds into Smith’s distinctive brand of “feminist pop,” which employs sharp humor as a means of deflating and reframing assumptions related to women, class, and divisions between high and low culture. Smith notes: “ […] instead of going with whatever the canon of art history says, I actually just developed deeply personal relationships with specific paintings, giving them my read. In a sense my paintings are a response to these paintings and the web of social, cultural and emotional weight they carry instead of a reference to them.” Smith's siren is able to move across art historical space and time, parodying the narratives she finds there and rewriting them in her own visual style. Sailing under a silent moon, at first glance the ship here seems empty, the lapping waves driving it on. Upon closer inspection though, we see the sea itself contains the unmistaken forms of female bodies, the rise and fall of the waves echoing a feminine silhouette. Replacing the hero Odysseus and his all-male crew, Smith places a female protagonist at the helm, the literal and symbolic figurehead for an alternative version of this canonical story.

\n\n

\n\n

Ouattara Watts, Cosmic, 2002. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, London.

\n\n

Ouattara Watts

\n\n

With Ouattara Watts’ work, the idea of remixing is baked into the conceptual basis of his practice – the Ivory Coast-born artist navigates a sea of cultures, symbols, patterns, numerals, and qualitative ideas not in search of, but rather in service to creating a universe on its own terms. “While I use identifiable pictorial elements to be better understood,” Watts notes, “this project is nevertheless about something much wider. I am painting the Cosmos.” There is a machine-like quality to the artist’s style, yet his figures of seemingly impractical items nurture a connective human aspiration, one that reveals the fundamental necessity of converging disparate images to create new landscapes. To Watts, the DJ and the metaphysician are exploring the same ideas; as are the skull or the chandelier or the flower in the artist’s system of objects. In Cosmic, Watts diagrams a darkened, mysterious figure with humanlike dimensions and several points of output with labels such as “Vision” and “Manifest” – and there is an unidentified input source, marked by its direction but its prompt just out of the scope of the canvas, coming from elsewhere in Watts’ interconnected macrocosm, almost in the form of an unsolved formula. There is always an unknown quantity which invites the remix to occur in the first place, and the artist experiments with any and all possibilities in order to arrive at the latest reach of the cosmos.

Austyn Weiner, Working Through Not Knowing A Damn Thing About Any Thing, 2020. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Austyn Weiner

\n\n

Executed on a monumental scale, Working Through Not Knowing a Damn Thing About Anything marks the Evening Sale debut of artist Austyn Weiner. With a background in photography, Weiner works across a wide range of mediums — including oil paint, crayon, and charcoal — to deconstruct physicality and feeling into sensual forms. Driven by an autobiographic urge, her supercharged palette references the richly saturated colors of her childhood in Miami. Weiner studied photography and painting at the University of Michigan before relocating to Los Angeles in 2016, where her painterly language embraced a more expressive mode of abstraction. "Most of the time, I approach a painting with no idea as to what it will be," she says. "But once in a while it hits like an arrow, and I know exactly what this work needs to become." Weiner’s work has been the subject of several solo shows, including her first solo show at Journal Gallery in New York in 2019, and most recently at Carl Kostyál in London and Bill Brady Gallery in Miami.

\n\n

Issy Wood

\n\n

An interdisciplinary artist at the vanguard of the 21st century’s revival and reinterpretation of Surrealist themes and motifs, London-based Issy Wood specializes in making the familiar strange. At once utterly contemporary and out of time, her canvases make surprising juxtapositions between temporalities, compounded by the artist’s use of her grandmother’s ornaments, old auction catalogues, iPhone photographs, and music as her source material. "Both painting and producing music deal with layers, scrapping the parts you don’t want, and happy accidents," she says. A child of the 1990s, she is well-schooled in the constant flow of decontextualized images and information that characterizes the digital age, resulting in darkly imaginative paintings that have brought notable critical acclaim. Wood earned her BA in Fine Art and History of Art at Goldsmith’s in 2015 and an MA from the Royal Academy Schools in 2018, during which time she staged her first solo show at Carlos/Ishikawa in 2017. Wood's work has since been shown at Beijing’s X Museum, as well as in a solo show at JTT in New York in 2020.

Michaela Yearwood-Dan, Coping Mechanisms, 2021. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Michaela Yearwood-Dan

\n\n

Diaristic and deeply personal, British artist Michaela Yearwood-Dan’s paintings record her reflections on race, class, and gender, and environmentalism. She incorporates botanical motifs and forms in lush, all-over environments that are as contemplative as they are visually compelling. Seen here, Coping Mechanisms is a work of high intensity that combines text and gestural mark-making in exuberant and expressive passages of vibrant color. Yearwood-Dan’s large-scale canvases nod to the all-over compositions of Cy Twombly, although where Twombly’s references looked back to a classical past, Yearwood-Dan’s are rooted firmly in the present moment, incorporating song lyrics, drafted notes of text messages never sent, and her "conversations" with Apple’s virtual assistant, Siri. "I’m most proud of my choice to move away from figurative work, to integrate text and make my vulnerability visible to my audience," she says. Yearwood-Dan has been celebrated with several solo exhibitions between New York and London. This year, Tiwani Contemporary celebrated the artist with a solo exhibition, and in 2021 she was the subject of another solo exhibition at Marianne Boesky Gallery.

Cristina BanBan, Melting away, 2018. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, London.

\n\n

Cristina Banban

\n\n

Spanish artist Cristina BanBan’s evocative portrayal of the female form celebrates women and the spaces they occupy. Depicting her subject’s bodies as enveloping the entirety of the canvas, BanBan subverts established notions of patriarchy and confronts the traditional male gaze. Her works combine classical training from the University of Barcelona with an interest in Japanese Anime to stylize and enlarge aspects of the body in an expressive representation of complex emotions. "Hands are my favourite part of the human body, after the teeth," she says. "Playing with hands brings movement into the painting. It doesn’t matter if the subjects are in relaxed positions, hands always create a dynamic composition." Currently based in New York City, BanBan has quickly attracted international praise with exhibitions worldwide, including multiple solo exhibitions at Perrotin in Shanghai in 2021 and Perrotin in Paris in 2022. BanBan recently set her personal auction record at Phillips's March 2022 auction in London.

\n\n

Julian Pace, Kanye, 2021. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, London.

\n\n

Julian Pace

\n\n

Based in Los Angeles, self-taught artist Julian Pace's interrogates themes of celebrity worship, identity, and self-absorption through large-scale portraiture. In both their treatment and content, Pace’s portraits clearly demonstrate his deep interest in art history and the figure of the artist, underpinned by several formative years spent in Florence. Working primarily in traditional mediums and within the historical contexts of the genre, Pace places his portraits of contemporary celebrities alongside reinterpretations of some of the most immediately recognizable images from the Western art historical canon. "I think I’m more interested in the human form and the people rather than who they are necessarily," Pace says. Marking the artist’s auction debut, the present work portrays Kanye West through Pace’s characteristically exaggerated proportions, bold angularity, and highly textured application of paint. Included in his recent exhibition "Julian Pace: Some Paintings" at Simon Simchowitz Gallery in October 2021, Pace’s portrait of West captures both the graphic quality of his practice and the intersection of traditional conventions of portraiture and mass media.

\n\n

Antonia Showering, I'm Not Saying, 2017. 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, London.

\n\n

Antonia Showering

\n\n

Stylistically recalling the dreamlike landscapes of Hurvin Anderson and Peter Doig, British artist Antonia Showering’s paintings play with personal memories, merging meaningful moments over into shifting emotional landscapes. "My paintings try and explore how memory works through stacking lots of recollections on top of one another," she says. Built up in velvety layers, her paintings often feature figures drawn from her family and those she has loved, not reflecting a physical likeness but recording the impressions of deep feelings and desires. Disarmingly intimate and pervaded by a poignant nostalgia, Showering balances emotion with an interpretative openness, endowing her figures with ambiguity. Living and working between London and Somerset, Showering earned an MFA from the Slade School of Art, London in 2018 and a BA (Hons) from City and Guilds of London Art School in 2016. Recent exhibitions of Showering’s work include an online solo presentation with White Cube in 2020 and this year's solo exhibition "Mixed Emotion" at the Timothy Taylor gallery.
