This exhibition includes eleven new paintings depicting images of fighter pilots and airplanes, classic motifs in Malcolm Morley's oeuvre since the early 1990s. Morley portrays aerial combat in dynamic scenes of movement and action. Morley is acknowledged as one of the earliest innovators of “super-realism,” which developed as a counterpoint to Pop Art in the 1960s. Over the course of his career, Morley has defied stylistic characterization, moving by turns through so-called abstract, realist, neo-romantic, and neo-expressionist painterly modes, while being attentive to his own biographical experiences. This exhibition catalog includes an essay by Brooks Adams.
