Hamburger Hill, 2002. Urethane on linen, 182.9 x 304.8cm
--"Furnas's works on paper from the last three years demonstrate the same seductive violence as the large canvases that first brought him attention. His vibrant, fractured compositions and confident surfaces-here primarily watercolor, sometimes deployed in concert with ink and urethane--suggest the cartoonish figures of Philip Guston (or Carroll Dunham, with whom he studied) put through some kind of spatiotemporal shredder. All splintered forms and great geysers of bodily fluids, Furnas's images emphasize the link between carnage and carnality; something in their constituent elements brings this connection to vivid life." -http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0268/is_3_42/ai_110913985/
