Brent Wadden: Two Scores

BRENT WADDEN: TWO SCORES complements and expands upon the recent exhibition at the Contemporary Art Gallery. Widely acclaimed for his large-scale, process- based weavings, which he sees as abstract paintings, Wadden disrupts mainstream assumptions about high art and craft and challenges their gendered histories, while also revisiting painting’s confl icted place in postmodern art. The catalogue is beautifully illustrated with works from 2015 forward, with an illuminating essay by curator Kimberly Phillips and a poetic response to Wadden’s work by Maria Fusco.
