“A Warholian mix of pop iconography and silk-screening.” —The New York Times

Ryan McGinness: #metadata features new paintings by Ryan McGinness. McGinness’ work, taking inspiration from skate and surf culture and graphic design, has been characterized as “equal parts Pop, Baroque, commercial and street.” But in his recent paintings McGinness stays local, taking his inspiration from his own studio space and tools. The paintings in the Studio Views and Screen Combines series depict various scenes and detritus from the studio, including tools, sketches, paint containers and finished paintings. Disrupting the normal hierarchy of means and ends, works in progress and finished products, McGinness presents us with the very tools and spaces used to make the paintings themselves. Ryan McGinness: #metadata features an interview with the artist, a selection of early works and installation views of McGinness’ work on view at the Kohn Gallery in Los Angeles and the Cranbrook Art Museum.
