Christopher Wool’s Art of War

Christopher Wool’s Art of War Christopher Wool sees the world in black and white. But this isn’t to say that the 53-year-old New York artist is dogmatic. “I try to keep the faith that if I concentrate on expressing myself, it will communicate,” he says. “But in the end, I’ve come to accept that no one sees my work in the same way I do.” Each of his silkscreens, Polaroids and stencilled words embodies layers of nuance. Compelling detail (“splattering” painted neatly onto the canvas with a fine brush) and charged phrases (“SELL THE HOUSE SELL THE CAR SELL THE KIDS”) have drawn discerning eyes to his monochromatic art for more than 20 years.
