José Lerma’s practice investigates painting and attempts to collapse the historical with the autobiographical. His works are part art history, part personal mythology, and several recurring themes deal with the tension between the heroic and the pathetic, as well as the rise and fall of great figures. While his work is rooted in painting, the final product usually results in elaborate installations that are often created with office materials, musical instruments, and home furnishings.
