Contemporary Traces of Memory
About
A broad grouping of contemporary works that attempt to capture a sense of memory through fading or disintegrating imagery. These works are often, but not always, figurative, and many are inspired by Gerhard Richter’s paintings. While the category is primarily comprised of paintings, it also includes highly stylized photography and video works that evoke the passage of time and memories both personal and collective.
