Reviews
"The American figurative painter Sam McKinniss takes images from popular culture and reinterprets them in lush, hyper-saturated oil paintings imbued with a queer sensibility. He's painted Lil Nas X in his pink cowboy suit, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman in Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut and a self-portrait in the style of a J.Crew advert. But, as his debut monograph from Rizzoli demonstrates, he is much more than a painter of pop culture, and is equally drawn to subjects from the natural world: cows, flowers, which he paints in the style of 19th-century French painter Henri Fantin-Latour, and swans." — FINANCIAL TIMES
