Biography:
Eric Fischl was born in New York City, but studied at the California Institute of Arts from 1969 to 1972. He favored a more figurative and representational style of painting than the Op Art and Minimalism that was popular at that time. While the figures in Fischl’s work appeal simplistic at first, they have unsettling undertones of insecurities, phobias, and anxieties with references to human sexuality.
