Parkett Vol 65
Quote from Parkett
“He’s not after anything as safe as a simple rehearsal of art history… what you’re witnessing is an artist in the grip of a passion far stranger than any kind of kitsch love you could care to name: Currin has fallen for academic painting. He’s found a fetish for technique, for style. And in a way, it’s hard to imagine a less fashionable enthusiasm.”
