Julian Schnabel - Corine Near Armenia

Julian Schnabel - Corine Near Armenia, 1984
oil, plates, and auto-body filler on wood

The vertically fractured image of a naked woman surrounded by pieces of broken crockery: the woman seems to stay confused between worlds of past and worlds of present, between a new beginning of the Universe and a cataclysm that just destroyed the Universe, between ambiguous signs of technology and ambiguous remnants of ancient history. Corine is near Armenia, the place where the horrible massacre shattered history and future for ever.
