Summary

"Best known for his exuberant paintings centered around semitragic fictional characters called the Mounds, Trenton Boyle Hancock (born 1974) is also a prolific draftsman. The first in-depth examination of his drawings, collages and works on paper, this comprehensive survey brings together works made between 1984 and 2014. Tracing the evolution of Hancock's vision by showing the genesis of his mythology, including that of the epic Mound saga, and his wide range of high and low influences, this catalogue demonstrates the fundamental, continuing importance of drawing in Hancock's work up to the present day. Exhibition: Contemporary Arts Museum, Houson, USA (27.04-03.08.2014)"--Publisher's description
