Rodney Graham. Wet on Wet
Rodney Graham defi es categorisation by employing multiple styles and by working in diverse media including photography, film, performance, music and text. Wet on Wet: My Late EarlyStyles presents a new body of worksreflecting on the practice of painting. For Wet on Wet Graham adopts the eccentric persona of the gifted amateur , a recurrent fi gure in his recent work. Theworks encompass a variety of styles, as Graham places painting in the context of post-medium practice. The artist credits music with informing much of his work. A musician himself, he views his role as an artist as an extension of the idea of performance. Graham s work examines social and philosophical systems of thought, in particular those derived from the transition of the Enlightenment into Modernism. Underlying each work is a historical context through which a complex narrative incorporates literary and philosophic references and visual puns.
