Bryan Leboeuf, “Mosh Pit”, 2003. Oil on Linen. 60 x 48 inches. Collection of Peter N. Geisler Jr., West Palm Beach, Florida. On extended loan to MOCA Jacksonville.
Bryan Leboeuf’s painting, “Mosh Pit”, depicts a crowded expanse of bodies and limbs viewed from above, on top of which a man is suspended, held by the people below. While the subject matter of the scene is modern and profane, the striking position of the body of the main figure is reminiscent of Baroque depictions of the religious subject of the Deposition of Christ from the Cross. Leboeuf’s use of chiaroscuro lighting and other Old Master techniques enhances the artistic references to the past embodied in this seemingly contemporary subject.

This blog is a refugee and a survivor of the Great Tumblr Inquisition of December 17th, 2018. I am gay artist, who received training at the Rhode Island School of Design, and now, a retired high-end fine art framer living in Maryland, USA. My interests and studies in life run a wide gamut from art to history and from the scientific to the esoteric. I have been building this blog of images and texts for the last eight years. My wish is that my posts pique the interest of viewers and encourage them to experience more.
