About The Artwork

This is 7x5 digital work in multiples of ten each signed and on paper. CAN'T HEAR YOU uses part of the old Japanese proverb "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." It was a common adage by the 17th century and was represented by three monkeys carved on a Shinto Shrine in Nikko. As with a similar beliefs in Hinduism, Buddhism and early Chinese philosophy, it urges us to beware of unsavory behavior which might lead to evil thoughts and deeds. In Western cultural it has the sense of pretending ignorance by looking the other way. The undertone here, I fear, is I have no interest in what you are saying. The Edwardian lady is from a period British postcard. The design is available in various sizes on Artspan (peterjketchum.com) and on a bunch of stuff in our store on Redbubble. https://www.redbubble.com/people/ketchumart/shop.

From the New York Times:"Peter J. Ketchum knows how to get the viewer's attention. Shown widely around the country, his pictures commingle colors, people, situations, commentary and mediums in a manner that is provocative, funny and to the point. Attempts to pigeonhole the work as Pop, folk, cartoon, mixedmedia, collage, anthropomorphic, or merely strange tend to fall short of the mark!" Five works were included in 35 Artists of North America, curated by Thomas Krens, former director of the Guggenheim Museum. Ketchum received a degree in fine arts from Colby College and did additional study at the School of Visual Arts in NYC. He studied privately with George Baer. The New York City based artist's work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institute, The Norfolk History Museum and Colby. It has been shown at the Brooklyn Museum, The Bushnell, The Springfield Museum of Fine Art, and The Discovery Museum. The artist has shown in solo and group shows in Boston and NYC, including Exit Art, Lumina, SOHO 20, HERE, the Williamsburg (Brooklyn) Art Center, Real Artways,the Charter Oak Cultural Center and TNC Gallery. Curators and/or gallery owners who have shown his work include Ethan and Ivan Karp (OK Harris, NYC), Susan Dunne (Pace NYC), John Klein (The Aldrich Museum) and Matthew Druitt (The Guggenheim.) www.peterjketchum.com www.saatchionline.com/PeterKetchum
