Lawrence Gipe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lawrence Gipe (born 1962) is an American painter. Much of his work derives from the propaganda and ideological frameworks depicted in advertisements, posters, fine arts photographs and tourist ephemera. Through his appropriation of imagery, Gipe conveys a sense of the porous and interchangeable nature of authoritarian tropes throughout the 20th century, particularly, the visual manifestation of war through mass-produced propaganda. He has exhibited internationally, including solo museum exhibitions at the Laguna Art Museum, Laguna Beach, CA; Amerika-Haus, Berlin; Worcester Art Museum, Worcester, MA; Kunstverein Düsseldorf; and The Chrysler Museum, Norfolk, VA. His work is in numerous public collections, including the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, San Jose Museum of Art, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Yale University Library, Zimmerli Archive-Rutgers University, Boise Art Museum, Cincinnati Art Museum, and the Norton Museum of Art, Palm Beach.
