Leidy Churchman: Crocodile

Edited by Lauren Cornell, Karen Kelly, Barbara Schroeder. Text by Ruba Katrib, Alex Kitnik, Arnisa Zeqo. Interview by Lauren Cornell.

Leidy Churchman: Crocodile

Ranging from figurative representation to gestural abstraction, monumental landscape paintings to more intimate portraits, the oeuvre of American painter Leidy Churchman (born 1979) channels his artistic and literary influences, friendships, moods, surrounding landscapes and the visual iconography of divergent religions and philosophies.

Crocodile highlights the artist’s investigations into consciousness in his renderings of anthropomorphic animals and psychological states; his appropriation of existing artworks and aesthetics; and his recasting of various signs and symbols, from his depiction of the Buddhist symbol of the protector deity in Mahakala (2017) to the Mastercard logo in Mastercard (2013).

Churchman, who divides his time between New York and Maine, emerges here as a dynamic protagonist of contemporary American painting. In addition to collecting 90 reproductions of works, the book features artwork made especially for it, plus texts by Ruba Katrib, Alex Kitnik and Arnisa Zeqo, in addition to a conversation between Churchman and Lauren Cornell.

PRAISE AND REVIEWS

Hyperallergic

Alex Jen

Churchman seems to be painting as a way to better comprehend his subjects; the canvases feel like dedications, striving to embody someone or something’s true nature.

'Leidy Churchman: Crocodile' is New from Dancing Foxes Press & CCS Bard

"Crocodile" (2016) is reproduced from the precise and beautifully designed catalog to painter Leidy Churchman’s first U.S. survey, at the Hessel Museum of Art, which was reviewed recently in Hyperallergic, where Alex Jen comments on their “beautiful peculiarity.” In a published interview in the book, Churchman tells Lauren Cornell, chief curator at CCS Bard, “When painting happens for me, it’s more like collecting caterpillars on a summer night, being both delighted and grossed out, or it’s driven by a desire to take care of something that is completely unknown.” continue to blog
