Marcel Dzama ( born 1974 in Winnipeg, Canada) is an artist based in New York. Dzama received his BFA from the University of Manitoba in 1997. In his works he uses characters drawn from popular culture and his own offbeat imagination. Humans and animals comically interact in surreal encounters. Each of Dzama’s drawing is a narrative fragment, suggesting that the unexpected has recently occurred. Viewers are free to draw their own conclusions.
Untitled (two figures with monkey) is part of a series of three drawings by Dzama.
