Jesse Reno Art
All Images copyright of the artist
2009 Winner of the "Most Expressive Artist
Award" from the Festival International Art
Singulier Contemporain, France. Reno's visceral, cave-like paintings are influenced by aboriginal art,
politics, mythology and experimental music. Artweek Magazine
(July/August 2007) describes Reno's
artwork as "...ritualistic and para-lingual, Reno's work bypasses the obstacle course of verbiage
in favor
of the ancient, tried-and-true method of direct, minimally
mediated system of archetypes and icons which
our culture both
trampled and idealizes as an indicator of an untenably pure state of
being."
