Work from his oeuvre
“My work uses the tropes of painting to examine the impact of the Information Age on the individual and the global community. I consider myself a painter, although I work primarily with lens-based, print-based, and digitally created media. I am more interested in painting as philosophy, rather than painting as material. This approach to painting reflects a mass media experience where information is sampled, quoted, referenced and eventually remixed into something new. In my practice, the history and language of painting become subverted with loaded social content and digital processes, thereby creating new forms through playful and irreverent quotation.” – Fabian G.
