Item Description
Measuring 16 x 20", "Blond with Bruce's Yams" is a water color archival print.
For the past ten years or so, Brendan O'Connell has been painting Walmarts: people shopping, and products on shelves, and people removing products from shelves and paying for them. He was fascinated by the stores' ubiquity and the commonality of the retail experience. At first, Walmart threw him out of its stores, but now they regard the work as revealing something essential and meaningful in the Walmart universe. He is, as one company executive said, capturing "the art in the Wonderbread; the art in the Jif."
- "Walart" by Susan Orlean, The New Yorker.
