I always want a picture to convey some thrill of
atmosphere or association on a subconscious level.
Very often, there are sinister or tragic elements
lurking beneath the surface, which are crucial
components of the kind of beauty I’m attempting
to convey. One finds this kind of aesthetic balance
in all forms of art throughout history, some fun-
damental dark component, which somehow makes
the end result seem all the more beautiful or lyrical.
Classical (especially Greek) culture often finds its
way into my paintings; it is rich in this kind of
aesthetic psychology. Their gods could often be
monstrous without being any less holy. There was
generally no dividing line between their art and
literature, and their cults and religion. The presence
of these elements in many of my paintings, however
disguised, goes a long way to explaining the title
of the show.
