LET US TELL YOU MORE ABOUT THIS EDITION

Andres Serrano is known for his fearless color photographs representing controversial subjects, including Ku Klux Klansmen, dead bodies, faces, handguns, and Catholic figurines submerged in bodily fluids.

“I don’t think my work is shocking ” – Andres Serrano

References to Catholic emblems and doctrine are recurring in Serrano’s art. His photographs are carefully composed and appear painterly showing suffused light and saturated colors. The subjects in his photographs are represented on the base of classical sculptural qualities as form, mass and balance.
