Artist Statement - Barbara McGivern

"When great paintings of the past become museumized they seem to become objects-scared, rare and worth millions. In this process they also lose their original value as statements: they become valued objects. With this in mind, I have rendered these objects with my own personal approach to painting. "
B. McGivern, 2013
