Description
Matthew Barney (1967), Cremaster 2: the Man in black , 1999, C-Print, no. 5/6, signed and dated on verso, 134,5x109 cm Provenance: Barbara Gladstone, New York, Ulla Dreyfus, (acquired from previous provenance), 25 October 2000, Private collection, Switzerland On verso: Label of the Barbara Gladstone Gallery, New York, ref. MB129 This photograph is part of the artist's major film project The Cremaster Cycle (1994-2002), in which he explores the genesis of forms and identity through a dense and allegorical visual language. The second part, inspired by the fate of Gary Gilmore, transposes this story into a Gothic western with mythological overtones, set in icy landscapes and salt flats.
