November 2011

For this exhibition, Reeder will be featuring works on paper and/or cardboard that deal with the odd juxtaposition of plants and distorted heads. Collage elements, loose mixed-media paintings and diptychs will create an interesting and sometimes messy installation.

Artists such as Jean Fautrier, Francis Picabia, Charles Birchfield and Jean-Jacques Audobon have been running through Reeder’s mind.

Tyson Reeder is a painter represented by Daniel Reich Gallery in New York and an Assistant Professor of Painting and Drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
