Discover the first publication by Almine Rech Editions about American painter Nathaniel Mary Quinn, featuring 'The Essence of Humanity', an essay by Dieter Buchhart.

Nathaniel Mary Quinn (b. 1977) creates hybrid, fractured portraits on paper and linen using charcoal, gouache, pastel, paint stick, and oil paint. The artist balances the beautiful with the grotesque, the sinister with the benevolent, capturing the complexity of human emotion in a way that is individual and also representative of the human condition.
