Quint Contemporary Art is pleased to present “A Rich Fantasy Life” –
an exhibition of new paintings by New York artist Ryan McGinness. This will be Ryan McGinness’s second solo exhibition at Quint Contemporary Art, in which the gallery is delighted to exhibit McGinness’s largest works to date.
McGinness’s work consists of an amalgam of icons and symbols. It incorporates strong social commentary on iconography, language, and historical and contemporary symbolism. His graphic drawings and personal iconography are replicated, recontextualized, and materialized infinitely throughout his densely-layered paintings. The Museum of Modern Art in New York, The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and The Saatchi Collection have recently acquired works by McGinness.
