Artist

Eliot Greenwald

1983 , American

Eliot Greenwald’s work encompasses painting, sculpture, and assemblage, and draws inspiration from an eclectic range of sources, including natural phenomena, pseudoscience, prehistoric narratives, theoretical physics, and popular media. By combining acrylic paint and oil stick, Greenwald creates vivid, tactile compositions that aim to evoke synesthetic experiences by saturating his paintings with intense colors and impasto surfaces. His freestanding sculptures incorporate found objects and studio debris, either painted in bright colors or left in their natural state, which blurs the lines between artifice and nature. Although Greenwald's work explores both ancient and sci-fi futurist registers, his playful approach and formal strategies defy easy classification. He blends modern phenomena with prehistoric motifs in a way that recalls analog film sets or the aesthetics of shows like Pee-Wee's Playhouse. In this way, Greenwald's work exists in a postmodern dimension that collapses historical styles into a continuum beyond strict chronology, inviting viewers to become passengers on a surreal journey. ...
