What purchase iridescence on a parting glance?

Comment: "In de Balincourt's paintings I hear the familiar Nietzschean cry, "God is dead". And I marvel at how this artist uses humour to deal with the space that is left deserted, empty in His absence. de Balincourt's humour is ambivalent, casually delicate and fundamentally pessimistic and it invents 'festivals of atonement' and 'sacred games' to find new meaning in a godless America. And this without obscuring any of its ills. I love the way the artist makes me feel his stumbling presence in his paintings as he completes his 'chapters' in a flurry of mad inspired activity." - FaSa
