Self Portrait (Pink Face) by Alex Israel
Description
Self Portrait (Pink Face) by Alex Israel
Alex Israel is a contemporary American artist with a broad conceptual practice that examines the film industry and its search for authenticity. His painting, film, and sculpture explores his own fascination with Hollywood and celebrity, and he is perhaps best known for his airbrushed gradient sky paintings resembling film backdrops.
“I think L.A. has long held a special place in the collective imagination,” the artist has said.
“Because so many of us have grown up watching television and movies that are filmed in L.A., we have an idea of the city that’s tied to televisual and cinematic fantasy.”
