The first encompassing publication on the work of Adam Pendleton, one
of the most formally inventive and conceptually rigorous American
artists working today
Adam Pendleton's original and powerful body of work has been described
as the embodiment of a new era. His multifaceted projects, which include
painting, collage, film, and publishing, re-contextualize historical and
theoretical positions on abstraction, blackness, and the avant-garde.
Working predominantly in black-and-white, Pendleton often creates 'total
works' that envelop viewers and push the limits of contemporary
discourse.
A rising star in the international art scene, Pendleton is currently
represented by PACE in New York, London, and Hong Kong; Shane Campbell
in Chicago; David Kordansky in Los Angeles; Max Hetzler in Berlin; Pedro
Cera in Lisbon; and Eva Presenhuber in Zurich.
