- Object Description
- This collection of works by Brice Canyon are typical of his artistic work of the 1990s. In his artistic practice, Canyon often used appropriated images – from magazines, archives and later the Internet – to create his collaged works. In this instance there are two "pietas." The first is a still from a pornographic video and the second is an image of Michelangelo's Pieta. The figures in both images reference the other: both have one seated figure on the bottom with a second figure splayed across the top of the other.
