By Matthew Gurewitsch and Lawrence Weschler. Motifs and Variations.
In this first major collection of his paintings, Olbinski celebrates the secrets of women without destroying their mystery. His unique perspective on such classical figures as Salome and Da Vinci's Mona Lisa is explored, as well as contemporary women and their place in today's world. Like a modern-day Salvador Dali, Olbinksi's art has a sense of parody and poetic humor. His paintings shine through the idea that woman cannot be objectified or defined by merely one thing. Includes a fascinating conversation between New Yorker writer Weschler and Olbinski, exploring his career and philosophy. 135 color plates. Abundant, tasteful nudity.
