About

Part of Cory Arcangel’s series of 'Scanner Paintings' begun in 2010, the four new works on view in the exhibition '3–' are based on depictions of various leisurewear textiles. The artist scans trousers from popular consumer brands, to which he adds his signature. He then prints enlarged details on IKEA LINNMON tabletops, which he combines in a collage-like manner to create his large-scale paintings. Arcangel’s most recent works reveal a new, minimalist quality in his œuvre, which contrasts with the early, brightly-coloured works from the series.
