Jeremy Blake - We Are for the Dark
We are for the Dark oil on canvas, triptych and Mod Lang installation
Mr. Blake, whose work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art and several other prominent institutions, began to make a name for himself in the late 1990s with dissolving photographic projections used to create the equivalent of geometric abstract paintings. He called his work “time-based painting.” Two Artists, One Suicide, the Other Missing, NYtimes

I want to reclaim abstraction from its being just a visual style. After all, before abstraction was a visual style, an abstraction was a philosophical concept that called up multiple images. That’s what abstraction means to me: the visual demonstration of philosophical nuance. In the conversation: John Baldessari & Jeremy Blake
