Reed Anderson: The Way You Look Is the Way I Feel
Pierogi is pleased to present an exhibition of recent work by Reed Anderson. This will be Anderson鈥檚 fourth show at Pierogi and will feature the synthesis of two series; his exuberant cut paintings on paper, as he refers to them, and his on-going 鈥淧apa Object鈥� project. These works range from medium to large scale.
Anderson describes his process as additive and self-generating. He begins the cut paintings by screen-printing or wood block printing patches or bands of color onto the base paper before cutting oval and circular shaped holes, then folding the paper and further applying paint through the cut holes, later collaging additional elements onto the work. The cut work motif in one painting, 鈥淟ooking Good Lady,鈥� is derived from the enlarged image of a typical rose tattoo at a local tattoo shop. Anderson prefers to allow the evidence of the making of the works 鈥� both the hand and the process 鈥� to remain. Throughout the making of these works they are in constant flux, a dance between cutting, painting, and collaging.
