Duane Paul
Sculptor, abstract painter and

after artist from New York to
California.
Artist Statement: My art-making
practice attempts to
destabilize our cultural
assumptions about the male
body and its uses as an
instrument of sexual pleasure
and desire. My work reinscribes the male body in
ways historically relegated to
the female. In reversing
traditional binary oppositions
posited as male/femaleactive/passive,
impenetrable/penetrable,
hard/soft, giving/receiving-I
offer a way into the “gated”
male body thereby shifting
the psychoanalytic structure
and problematizing sexual
identity.
