A selection of paintings from the 20th and 21st centuries, including Ellen Altfest, a modern vanitas, and the fast food bodegone.
Altfest
We don’t know their names as well, but we know the faces and bodies of those who model for artists. They achieve some kind of immortality.
Ellen Altfest paints the real world, a morsel at a time. Her paintings are both very modern and deeply traditional, and absolutely magnificent.
