Jim Shaw is a major figure in contemporary American art, known for bringing a surrealist sensibility to his sharp observations of U.S. popular and political culture. Across paintings, installations, and his renowned Dream Drawings, Shaw explores the intersections of dreams, conspiracy theories, mass media, and recent history. This monograph, compiled in collaboration with Didier Ottinger, focuses on Shaw’s fascination with the figure of Donald Trump, revealing his method of freely combining images, texts, fables, and historical facts into new myths. Blending dark humor with subversion, Shaw transforms familiar imagery into unsettling visions, offering a critical, often disturbing portrait of contemporary America where imagination and reality collide.
