art nathaniel mary quinn gagosian interview

Nathaniel Mary Quinn is preparing for his fifth solo exhibition with Gagosian, titled “ECHOES FROM COPELAND,” opening September 10. The show is inspired by Alice Walker’s 1970 novel *The Third Life of Grange Copeland*, which Quinn read twice and found deeply resonant. The works continue his signature style of fragmented, abstract-figurative portraits using oils, pastels, and charcoal, while also incorporating influences from Francis Bacon exhibitions he saw in London. Quinn’s practice draws heavily on his own traumatic upbringing—his mother died when he was 15 and he was abandoned by other family members—and his compositions evoke fragmented memories.
