Matisse et Métisse.
Collage and construction with various printed papers, 1999. Approximately 380x635 mm; 15x25 inches. Signed and dated in pencil, lower right.
Young Washington DC artist Victor Sparrow has pushed traditional collage and assemblage into the realm of contemporary art. His works appropriate from both fine art and pop sources to form a critical discourse on the role of African-American imagery in our visual culture. Before earning an MFA degree in painting from the Art Institute of Chicago in 1993, Sparrow was the recipient of early honors with a Skowhegan residency, a fellowship for a National Gallery of Art internship and a grant from the National Endowment of the Arts. His work is found in such collections as the William Benton Museum of the University of Connecticut and Mary Lou and George B. (Spike) Bietzel, Chappaqua, NY.
