The work of Lawler possesses the beauty and power of the authentic.
I’m pleased to present a painter, whose worth is apparent, and who has made figurative expression actual, and authentic.
The American painter, Lawler exhibits an expressionism that is powerful and all encompassing.
I.D. Lawler is a painter with roots firmly established in the most violent expressionism ofSpanish art. His oils are distant siblings of Goya and Solano. They have the force of questioning our placidity.
The drawings of Lawler are full of pathos, without becoming caricatures. In our opinion this is the most difficult and risky of styles. His message is clear while being obscure, something he achieves magically.
