object description
This triptych, featuring a detail from Untitled #414 Clown, includes three skateboard decks and comes ready to hang with simple mounting hardware and instructions. Top print features a hand-signed signature by Cindy Sherman.
Cindy Sherman's (b. 1954) ground-breaking photographs have interrogated themes around representation and identity in contemporary media for over forty years. In Untitled #414 Clown, Sherman is shown manipulating her pose, gesture, costume, and makeup to create portraits of herself as a clown. Staged with dramatic lighting and vivid color, these portraits are equally horrifying and humorous.
