Christian Verdun

Christian Verdun is an American artist best known for his work on the cut-up Burrough's style poetry collage Paradox.

Paradox is a cut-up poetry collage forming a picture of Abraham Lincoln being Assassinated at Ford's Theater.

The name is derived from the literary device, the paradox is an anomalous juxtaposition of incongruous ideas for the sake of striking exposition or unexpected insight.

It functions as a method of literary composition - and analysis - which involves examining apparently contradictory statements and drawing conclusions either to reconcile them or to explain their presence.

In 2013, he finished his third 11x8 inch piece anonymous, created from words cut from the comic book V for Vendetta which were remixed back together to form a picture of V wearing a Guy Fawkes mask.
