Art Krush: Steve DiBenedetto

Scene Selection, 2010, oil on canvas, 60 x 48 inches  

ever since i saw his stuff at the whitney in 2005, then heard him talk about his work - i've totally fallen in love. this guy is a bad ass! he makes messy, a bit clumsy paintings that i could look at all day long. the helicopters and octopi have nearly disappeared and morphed into some crazy abstract shit. the one above was my favorite. this work is from his show that just ended at David Nolan Gallery. ENJOY!
