An Artist's Obsessions

"Existence precedes essence...man first of all exists...encounters himself afterwards..."
Sartre, Existentialism Is Humanism

Dal Lazlo's artwork is a distillation of his encounters and obsessions. His work, especially collage paintings and art on paper, seem to be a kind of arcane ephemera--ragged announcements of a psychological nature, a crossing of beauty and essences of violence. A sincere psychoanalytical release, these images are surrealism in its purest form and intent, a language beyond words, an attempt at transcendence through transgression.

Dal Lazlo has exhibited on the West Coast and throughout the Midwest and his work is in numerous private collections. His education includes the San Francisco Art Institute, the Chicago Art Institute, and the Chicago Academy of Art. In addition to painting, he has directed and co-directed numerous experimental films. He is the founder of a radical art movement called, Dada Loco, that has been functioning since the 1970s.

The Etchings

These prints have all been produced over the last two years. Dal has always been influenced by German Expressionism, its technique and content, which is reflected in the etchings in this collection. They are from the heart and are some of the most authentic depictions of the Expressionist movement in both style and content on the contemporary art scene. They are not dissimilar to the works of George Grosz and Ernst Ludwig Kirchner.

All of the prints are produced with great care using only the finest imported inks and highest quality paper. Each print is inked and printed by hand, using traditional methods dating back hundreds of years. Each print is a limited edition, signed, dated, and numbered by the artist.
