Michael Stack
(Illinois/ Missouri, 1941-2018)
Eagleman #1, 2007
Oil on canvas
69" x 57"
Signed, titled, and dated to the reverse. Stack described the history of his Eagleman imagery, among his last major series of paintings, which were exhibited in Kansas City and Amsterdam:
"My recent paintings are about Eagleman, being my symbolic, almost Icarus-Iike figure. Eagleman does not like Icarus, fall to his death, but he soars for the sun. I am Eagleman... Before these paintings I had a long period of not painting. My last painting before this long period was about 9/11. It was a 9/11 triptych. A very poetic painting. Eagleman as an image grew from the central figure of this 9/11 painting. Over the time that I was painting him, he became a figure of aspiration, of change, of a will to seek a new truth... My whole career, I went through a lot of pain. I painted about pain, about danger. How close we come to danger, that with one misstep we are in trouble. The Eagleman paintings do not reject that idea, I am still prone to trouble, but I am aspiring to this new truth."
