AM just saw the one of the pieces from Kris Kuksi for his upcoming solo show at Joshua Liner Gallery and wanted to share it immediately with our readers. This piece is entitled “The Temptation of St. Anthony,” which refers to the temptations faced by Saint Anthony the Great during his times in the Egyptian desert (a common subject in art and literature – probably the two of the most well-known, for us at least, were by Hieronymus Bosch and Salvador DalÃ).
We can’t wait to see Kuksi’s hyper-detailed mix-media assemblages come November in his show entitled “Beast Anthology.” For now, check out more detailed images after the jump.
