  • Episode #266: From their mutual gallery in New York City, Marcel Dzama and Raymond Pettibon collaborate on a new series of drawings. "I enjoy working alone for about a month and then after that I really need to be around other artists," explains Dzama, "I always really enjoy collaboration." The two artists work side-by-side on large-scale drawings of cathedrals, horses, and waves, allowing their work to unfold organically.
    For Dzama, his collaboration with Pettibon is especially significant. "He was the first contemporary artist I had heard of," explains Dzama, "I really feel that he opened the door for the acceptance drawing as a main art form, not as just the sketch before the painting."
    Since meeting through an event at their gallery, Pettibon and Dzama now frequently collaborate, allowing their own styles and signature imagery to influence one another. "I've definitely found that I have this looseness to my work when I collaborate," says Dzama. "It gives it more of an energy. The work is alive."
    Marcel Dzama was born in 1974 in Winnipeg, Canada. Fantastical and absurd, Dzama's drawings feature a cast of humans, animals, and hybrid creatures rendered in pencil, ink, watercolor, and, at times, root-beer syrup. Dzama draws upon a mix of influences-from childhood monsters, like the Wolfman and Dracula, to the work of artists like Marcel Duchamp, Francisco Goya, William Blake, and Francis Picabia-to create unique worlds that are at once surreal and familiar, sweet and violent, and chaotic and elegant.

    To work in a studio like this- let alone a collaboration with somebody- is a huge dream of mine. I'm going to miss the atmosphere of my art classes once they're over, but what you have here is the perfect balance of everything I like about them. In a way, watching the process here is more interesting than the art itself. It's a special wonder to see both artists work off each other, starting in silence when they work together and eventually moving on with casual conversation. You're living the dream.

      they're pretty happy you got that right! Appears the two are drawing conclusions with the addition of paint, a natural choice preceding the drawing. why do you care? Did you know who these two were prior to clicking?
