30 YEARS OF RE-EXAMING THE AMERICAN
VISUAL LANDSCAPE
“The American myth needs to be reexamined in the twenty-first century, even rewritten. One of the most important contributions in this regard is being produced by the American Marcus Jansen. With Caribbean and German roots, he is a painter through and through, a painting diagnostician with a gaze as comprehensive as it is incisive. He radically disposes of the early American myth of undeviating progress. His results are disconcerting, and they can be frightening.
” Prof Dr Manfred Schneckenburger (Art Historian/Curator and two-time Documenta Kassel Curator 1977/1987)

Curated by Brooke Lynn Mcgowan Ph.D
is pleased to present a mid-career retrospective of the work of artist Marcus Jansen, Obscure Line Between Fact and Fiction, curated in partnership with Brooke Lynn McGowan and titled after the artist's magnum opus of the same name. Opening October 21, 2017, this unparalleled collection of the last decade of the artist’s work, from 2007 to the present, comprises the largest exhibition in the United States and first on the West Coast of the German-American painter, whose unique oeuvre serves as an emotive and insightful critique of the contemporary American and global political and sociological landscape. Directly following a series of solo exhibitions in Europe and barely in advance of his exhibitions at the Zitadelle in Berlin and the Baker Museum in Florida, Obscure Line Between Fact and Fiction not only indicts contemporary culture’s media-driven simulacra, obscuring a perception of the real, but also and moreover, in painting, multi-media, and sculptural form, sounds a stirring battle cry against the miscarriages of justice of the early 21st century through an expressive and engaged aesthetic, arguably unseen in American art since Rauschenberg or Basquiat.21 Oct 2017 - 20 Jan 2018
