Description

Carl Fudge will exhibit several new series of paintings at the Feldman Gallery. The paintings, based on the digitization of motifs from Warhol’s Camouflage paintings and Japanese erotic prints, retain only a trace of their source. Derived from an elaborate process that combines computer technology and traditional media, their hybrid compositions blur the distinctions between the aura of an original object and its reproduction. Fudge creates a new pictorial vocabulary based on the interplay of chance and calculation.
