"Die Mutter des Künstlers," (2016) by Glenn Brown is currently on view at Art Basel Hong Kong.

In this work, a female nude offers her hand, her finger dripping blood (presumably from a visible wound on her side) in a gesture that is both maternal and Christ-like, but with a sickly, accusative edge. Not only does Brown distort the proportions of the figure from Eugene Delacroix’s “Nu Feminin assis (Mademoiselle Rose),” (1820) he also removes the figure’s head, plunging the viewer into his own alternate reality. Bathing the painting in bluish tones (an evident nod to Picasso’s Blue Period), Brown asserts the history of art to be dynamic, not static.
