The technically and iconographically striking paintings of Avery Singer (born in 1987, lives and works in New York) thwart our visual expectations. At first glance they resist clear classification as either painting or printing processes. Hence her work raises the obvious and artistically pressing question of how the digital information that surrounds us can materialize itself—as a flat image on paper or more recently in 3-D in plastic, or on and in every other possible material surface. Allusions to the motifs and styles of classic modernism and to postmodernist debates can be identified in her works. The insignias of the “fine arts” collide with avant-garde tropes, and parodic-autobiographical motifs constantly allude to clichés of the art world. Adopting a humorous tone, Avery Singer demonstrates rituals and social patterns, and presents stereotypes of the artist, curator, collector, and writer.
