A Theater of Recollection
New York artist John Walker’s latest paintings assault the viewer with breath-taking impact on visceral, intellectual, and poetic planes. The paintings engage history, biography, and poetry in a complex dialogue with World War I. Walker wrestles with the war’s horror, its enormous and bloody casualties, and its continuing public memory, in a series of 15 works that directly address specific battles. This is also a person history for Walker: he lost 11 uncles in one day in 1916, and he remembers accounts of his father’s experiences in the infantry. The paintings simultaneously engage in a more universal dialogue, with the inclusion of lines from two of Great Britain’s most haunting poets of World War I, Wilfred Owen and David Jones. There lines are obsessively painted across the canvasses, burning into memory in paint as well as words.

Art In the Age of Mass Media
The inclusion of popular culture in art, and the distinction between the two, we learn in this volume, are problems usefully approached through a careful definition of terms. Walker lays out the terms then surveys the field chronologically, beginning with Courbet and ending with Melrose Place. The third edition contains a new chapter on the art of the 1990's that includes discussion of surveillance, advertising, cinema, Damien Hirst, the Internet, and digital art. c. Book News Inc.
