Walton Ford: Tigers of Wrath, Horses of Instruction

by Steven Katz and Dodie Kazanjian

The paintings of Walton Ford (born 1960) combine draftsmanship with layers of allegorical and lyrical symbolism. It's as if John James Audubon had been visited by the spirit of Hieronymous Bosch is how one critic has described the unsettling impact of Ford's work, with their sometimes violent imagery and their trenchant political and social commentary on history, colonialism and the precarious relationship between man and animal.
