Cititank, Michael Wetzler, Mixed Media on Canvas, 34 x 41.75"

$8,000.00

Cititank, supermarket purchased tripe is dipped into distemper and blotted onto the painting surface, afterwards hand cut foam stamps of the Citicorp building in Manhattan are used to build up the rest of the image. The canvases start by roaming the aisle of Key Foods or dipping into Bushwick delis. One action creates the next until the subject of the painting comes full circle back into representing the moment of consumerism, the ineluctable loop we now find ourselves
