These are paintings. Yes, you read correctly, paintings. Artist Kon Trubkovich, represented by Marianne Boesky Gallery, paints freeze framed and glitched images on linen and paper. His work is a stunning representation of images we are all to familiar with (that is, if you're "old" enough to remember what it was like to a watch tapes on a VCR, or filter cable through bunny ears on your television) though presented in an unexpected setting. One is left to wonder, why this video still? What does it mean and why is it important? There's something eerie and lingering about a mass of pixels and a visually disjointed face. Let us know how you feel about Trubkovich's work in the comments below.
