Description
Bankers Financial Flesh Unbound by Lincoln Townley – SOLD
This painting by Lincoln Townley, from his “Banker Heads” series, is a striking, psychologically intense portrait rendered in his signature impasto expressionist style.
The face is aggressively abstracted—reduced to a chaotic, almost skeletal smear of impasto paint. It appears partially deformed or melting, which evokes feelings of internal disintegration or moral corruption.
Townley’s “Banker Heads” series critiques the facelessness of power and the moral decay within high finance. The distorted face suggesting the loss of individuality or humanity and the vivid but clashing colours may reflecting the internal conflict, greed, or psychological turmoil.
As Townley’s bank heads sell out upon release, please contact the gallery to discuss your collecting goals and to be notified of new availability.
