Multiple stab wounds
"We all see death before our eyes," Beksinski said at a recent opening of his work
Odd Nerdum, Giger, and Beksinski are the only modern painters that when I first saw their work,I saw my nightmares. As if they had propped up an easel in my dreams, voyeuristic, surrealstic.
With my computer being down, I had been planning a return to oils. Just last week I was studying Beksinki's work. Owing a lot to Friedrich, Dhurmer, and Knopff yet being subtle and original.
Not many people know of Beksinki's work, so here is a mini gallery. I remember many of these dreams, perhaps you do too.
