Justin Francavilla: I Said You Fckn Die!

Daniel Cooney Fine Art


Francavilla’s ink drawings portray hyper-real scuffles between middle-aged men in middle-management uniforms. These grotesquely stylized images could be satiric exaggerations of corporate competitiveness, or a broader critique of the dehumanizing effects of contemporary society. Either way, Francavilla renders his break-room fight clubs beautifully, with incredible attention to the texture and shading of skins and suits. Closes 5/3
