Delia Brown -Felicity & Caprice

The storyline for this narrative series of small oils was inspired by Claude Chabrol’s 1968 melodrama Les Biches. This story of an heiress -- and the young would-be artist who is first taken in by her and then ultimately, by murdering her, attempts to supplant or become her -- is a meditation on the tenuous if not dangerous relationship between artist and patron in bourgeois society. Chabrol’s story took place in chic Paris and St Tropez; Brown’s interpretation stages the scenes in posh Manhattan and the Hamptons. Brown plays the heiress while actress Hollis Witherspoon (previously featured in Brown’s “Chelsey Green” video and painting series) plays the unbalanced ingenue. The series was shown at Gallery Hyundai, Seoul, in 2011, and Angles Gallery, Los Angeles, 2012. More
