Brief Introduction: Dana Schutz




Dana Schutz creates fantastical scenes executed in bright colors and bold brush strokes. Her figures often appear to be melting, while blank eyes look off in different directions. Schutz's world is a place where a blood transfusion with a shark cures the plague, people eat themselves in order to continue to exist, and dogs can live without their heads--it is a sinister, yet stunning world.
