Published on the occasion of his fifth solo exhibition at David Zwirner gallery in New York, Even the Ghost of the Past presents new work by the influential young Canadian artist Marcel Dzama--including a DVD of original short films. A favorite among the art, literary and indie music scenes, Dzama is best known for his figurative compositions of pen and watercolor on manila-colored paper. Bearing a characteristic palette of muted browns, greys, greens and reds, Dzama's drawings are populated by an expansive cast of human, animal and hybrid characters. In recent years, Dzama has extended his practice to include work in multiple media. A recent exhibition, for example, transformed the gallery into an odeum of imagination, replete with drawings, sculptures, dioramas and films. Featuring an interview with the artist by filmmaker Spike Jonze and designed in collaboration with the artist as two hardback books twin-bound into one with a custom drawing on the cover, Even the Ghost of the Past is destined to become an instant collector's item.

Great Dzama Package,
By
This review is from: EVEN THE GHOST OF THE PAST (Hardcover)
You get a little of everything that makes Marcel Dzama's work so wonderful in this well-designed package that is sort of like two hardcover books bound together with each one serving as it's own front cover when you flip the book over. One half of the book is filled with his artwork from the "Ghost" exhibition and not reproduced anywhere else. The other side is filled with photographs of his dioramas and sculpture which is amazing. The dioramas are like Dzama illustrations in 3-d claymation mode. And to top if all off there is a DVD of his animated shorts. This is easily worth the price and is a great collection to own.
