November 2 - January 5, 2019
A show of new works by Austin-based artist Brad Tucker. “In many ways, the questions Tucker asks in Temporary Relief are about speed and how we make meaning from abstract things (in this case, both language and non-figurative painting). On a cross-country road-trip, for example, the advertising signage begins to blur in our conscience, making other unexpected meanings and juxtapositions because of the speed with which we absorb them. These texts are meant to be read quickly and to make a lingering impression, not to have many layers of meaning; of course, this absence of meaning makes them susceptible to many kinds of playful mis-readings.”
