VINCENT VALDEZ (B. 1977) Untitled, 2023 signed and dated (lower right); numbered (lower left) hand pulled Serigraph on paper and Mylar 30 x 22 in. 76.2 x 55.9 cm. This work is number twenty-one from the edition of twenty-five. Footnotes: Provenance Courtesy of the artist Artist statement: Vincent Valdez blends large, representational paintings—the scale of which recall Western traditions of history painting as well as mural painting and cinema—with contemporary subject matter. He focuses on subjects that explore his observations and experience of life in the twenty-first century. The results are powerful images of American identity that confront injustice and inequity while imbuing his subjects with empathy and humanity. Valdez states, 'My aim is to incite public remembrance and to impede distorted realities that I witness, like the social amnesia that surrounds us all.'
