Kurt Diptych

The voice of a generation and an entire movement. 30 years after the relese of his iconic "Nevermind" Kurt Cobain remains a powerful symbol of rebellion and change. Tragic, beautiful and complicated, Cobain represented here in Andre Monet's piece "Kurt" as he was when he lived. Multilayered, complex and powerful. Mezmerizing and impossible to ignore. Gone but never forgotten.
Inspired by cinema, photography, music and literature, Monet has a natural sense for modern culture and his contemporaries. His signature conceptual assemblage of text, texture and color exudes eccentricity and empowerment of its time, exemplifying the personalities of its icons. His portrait work blends collage of old newspapers and books, painting and varnishing; the traits of his characters are recreated with such precision that one might see a realistic photograph arising from a distance.
