About the Work
Marc Dennis's Honey Bunny is a hyper-realistic still life with some odd and disturbing symbols. In the bottom right-hand corner is a clear reference to the sculpture by artist Jeff Koons, known for his coy and often raunchy playfulness. The centerpiece of the composition is a handgun, which is oddly juxtaposed with surrounding pearl strands and coils of jewelry. In the upper right-hand corner of the painting is a fragment of women’s lingerie, which contrasts with the masculine, brown shoe in the upper left-hand corner. Honey Bunny, full of sexual, violent, and domestic images, is not your average, conservative still life.
About the Artist
Marc Dennis paints hyper-realistic and strikingly detailed paintings addressing notions of subversive desire, pleasure, and beauty. The artist lures us into the spectacle of subtly staged and slightly voyeuristic worlds of contemporary American culture. Interested in the transformative possibilities of familiar iconic images, such as guns, meat, jewelry, and assorted material possessions, Dennis explores the charged subjects of decadence, death, power, and sexuality.
