DESCRIPTION:  Death Comes to Us All is the painting equivalent to a psychotic episode; Schutz's man and machine meld in convincingly scary hallucination. Dana Schutz's paintings draw a fine line between escapism and invasion: her elaborate scenes are not just depictions of fantasy, but portals to plausible realities where ‘life' and ‘art' converge. Creating parallel worlds contrived in their own rules of logic, Schutz paints an interconnectedness between function and form. Adopting the role of the artist as a Dr Frankenstein-like power, Dana Schutz consolidates figuration and abstraction as a monstrous experiment, the effect of artistic vision spun out of control.
