David Salle's New Pastorals reflect a postmodern understanding of images existing across multiple contexts, manifesting a progressive evolution in his artistic approach since the 1980s.
The New Pastorals abandon Salle's earlier style of neatly disjointed panels, embracing an all over aesthetic characterized by exploded figures and vibrant whorling colors.
By incorporating elements of artificial intelligence in his latest series, Salle pushes the boundaries of traditional painting while inviting the viewer to contribute their interpretations.
Salle’s work embodies an open-ended approach that challenges the viewer’s perception, echoing Jean Renoir’s belief that when art is entirely intelligible, the public has nothing to add.
