This episode was inspired by 2 main sources: 1) The book 'Painting the Dream' by Daniel Bergez and also 2) An online artists' talk between 3 painters: Chie Fueki, Alexi Worth and Catherine Murphy called 'Painting Table: Catherine Murphy talks with Chie Fueki and Alexi Worth' 1/21/22 hosted by DC Moore Gallery: Watch here. I began in 1525 with Albrecht Durer, then moved to France with Odilon Rédon in the 1800's, the Surrealists and André Masson in the 1920's, and then shot over and up to the US in the 50's to Jasper Johns, and finally landed back at modern day with the exquisitely-observed representational paintings of Catherine Murphy.
Come along on a ~~Dream Quest~~ with me to discover works of art that show real dreams.not just images of sleepers or 'dream-like' paintings.
