Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Thaddeus Strodeâs vibrant large-scale paintings are universes unto themselves: wild mash-ups of California surf and skateboard culture, Zen philosophy, rock music, literature, film, and comic books. Absolutes and Nothings marks the artistâs first major museum show, presented as part of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museumâs Contemporary Projects series.Â
 Strodeâs images draw on a wealth of motifs inspired by a broad range of sources in popular culture, freely combined with the artistâs own creations. The strength and visual pleasure of Strodeâs aesthetic come from his self-reflexive combination of painterly styles and incongruous elements, in which enigmatic texts, phantoms, monsters, and castaways play off one another to produce crypticâand captivatingâfantasies. Including over two dozen full-color images of works from 2001 to the present, as well as essays by Sabine Eckmann, Meredith Malone, and Benjamin Weissman, Absolutes and Nothings is a fascinating premier monograph from one of our most vital and exciting contemporary visual artists.
