Last Sunday's JAS Zoom presentation featured @joelsilversteinart who showed us his exciting and totally original oeuvre based on biblical themes; contemporary look at the visual tradition of the epic and the evocation of the sacred. The artist’s family, friends and other autobiographical material are the inspiration for a complex Magic Realism. This creates an overlapping sense of myth derived from such diverse sources as dreams, cinema, Old Master painting, photography and comic books.
