Known for paintings of women, Lisa Yuskavage's images occupy the space between high and low; the sacred and the profane. Many of these new works explore a complex psychological direction–specifically, symbiotic relationships. Influenced in part by images that depict power struggles, including Baroque sculptures (specifically Gianlorenzo Bernini) and Giorgio de Chirico's late "Gladiator" paintings, Yuskavage's "figures" hover or climb upon one another–caught in embraces that appear to shift between tenderness and violence. Within these paradoxical relationships, it is often difficult to decipher what is real and what is imagined; what is weighted and what is weightless; what is made of paint and what transcends the medium entirely. Yuskavage's subtle degrees of fiction and representation culminate in questionable, unsettling quasi-realities. - David Zwirner
