Dan Basen 1960s Oil Painting On Canvas

Dan Basen's work is the act of stripping objects from their original intended use and compelling the viewer to scrutinize them anew.  His work associates heavily with the ready-made tradition in his reordering of commonly manufactured items into collaged or constructed works. During his brief career, Basen received numerous accolades and his work has been featured in museum exhibitions at the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum, New York (both of which own the artist's work), as well as the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, the Museum of the Rhode Island School of Design and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
