The Colors Of James Marshall (Dalek)
In his new work James Marshall, also known as Dalek, has pushed beyond his familiar 'Space Monkey' into a world of flat linear geometry and chaotic color. His familiar icon, which was a central point for much of his early work, was developed around the time he graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. At the time he said that he had no particular direction in his painting and after seeing the work of Takashi Murakami at a gallery in Boston realized what he was looking for was "that sort of apprenticeship." After working as Murakami's assistant in 2001 it is clear that James has stepped from behind his earlier work and set off on a new path of creativity.
His work can be seen alongside Delta in the exhibition DALEK & DELTA at Elms Lesters Painting Rooms in London until September 26, 2009.
