About this artwork
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Spina seems to be saying. The ghostly figure on the lower right mimics the statue above, while the figure on the left seems to be peering into the depths, suggesting the opened structure in the center of the drawing. We are the viewers in the center, staring at ourselves.
Spina uses his signature crosshatching technique to bring our self-consciousness to the foreground.

Manhattan artist Paul Spina (1937-2017) was a masterful painter and visual artist with a BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. He drew on a rich background steeped in both commercial illustration and fine art exhibitions across major American cities. He employed strong draftsmanship, vivid color, dramatic perspective, expressive line, and found objects, blending influences from Rembrandt to Pollock—his work bursts with movement and biting visual harmony, often overlaying personal iconography. His paintings channel intense emotion and personal history, inviting viewers to experience the complexity of joy, loss, and outrage, and challenging them to confront complacency and the darker truths lurking beneath society’s surface.
