"Zen Transport" --
When U ship Zen, It's already there!
With the usual mastery of skill and humor in his work, in
"Zen Transport,"
Blue Sky brings us a continuation of his series of
Interstate Landscapes. Since the late 1960's he has utilized this award winning
and highly collected unique and original theme. This theme has proven to be significant
in the culmination of the urban singularity present in his work and recognized as
a rare mark of trademark and originality in Contemporary art.
As a two-dimensional painting it is appreciably and
historically important in his oeuvre.
With "Zen Transport", as with his other trucks, he incorporates the
richness of texture and ideas, creating a layering of time.
The viewer can come back time and again and
discover nuances first missed such as the
"Country Girl Molasses" fictitious logo,
the "Highly Aesthetic Material" warning label,
the scrawled graffiti "When U ship Zen, It's already there."
Drawn from both memories and imagination,
he notes that these works are not only time intensive,
but truly "about the passage of time."
This important work can now be seen at the
Blue Sky Gallery in Five Points.
