THE LINCOLN PROJECT - Paintings by Don Pollack.
Exhibition opens February 2009 Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum. Don Pollack created the Lincoln Project as a series of contemporary paintings exploring the nature of history and representation. By highlighting the life of Abraham Lincoln, the project seeks to have a conversation with painting, photography, history, and art history and includes painted landscapes, portraits, maps, and documents. Don Pollack is interested in how the processes of photography and painting affects the recording of history and impacts our personal and collective memory. Traditional art style categories have been reinterpreted in the Lincoln Project in an attempt to reveal the complexity of representation and portray a personal narrative of the 16th President. |
