John Currin: The Red Shoe Nonfiction the Bill & Melinda GatesThe Red Shoe is from a series of black and white prints by John Currin produced in collaboration with Kido Press, depicting individuals and smiling couples seemingly unaware of the random assortments of food, birds, and objects balanced on their heads and bodies. Characteristic of the artists oeuvre, the work combines the compositional structures typical of old master portraits and Northern European painting with whimsical subject matter.
