Death In Venice Edition Bold red and blue circlesDeath in Venice by Magnus Gjoen is a Gicle print that presents a striking visual contrast. Set against a khaki background, the silhouette of a MAC 10 submachine gun is overlaid with a veduta style Venetian scene, reminiscent of 18th century painters like Canaletto. The classical, serene imagery sharply contrasts with the shape of the weapon, creating a powerful tension between beauty and violence, culture and destruction.
