Marisa J Futernick interrogates the failed promise of the American Dream in a work addressing issues of class, progress and real estate. Her signature style combines the personal and historical, fact and fiction.
Futernick is particularly interested in the post-war period of her parents’ generation, and how it affects the present. US born, the artist has lived in London for over a decade, during which her art has become increasingly focused on her home country.
All proceeds from the sale of RA Editions prints go directly to support the RA Schools.
Futernick is a Los Angeles-based artist and writer and a graduate of the RA Schools. Her work explores expressions of 'Americanness', in particular the the post-war period of her parents’ generation, and how it affects the present. Born in the US, the artist has lived in London for over a decade, during which her art has become increasingly focused on her home country. She uses a variety of media including photography, film and video, installation, writing, radio and painting; with the combination of text and image a regular feature throughout her work.
Featuring real-life cultural critics as fictional characters, How I Taught Umberto Eco to Love the Bomb is the tale of a California road trip, with Futernick serving as driver, tour guide, and American optimist. The book combines original colour photographs with a short story by the artist.
The RA Editions programme generates valuable revenue for the RA and in particular the RA Schools.
