Brendan Lynch

1985, Los Angeles, USA

 

The artist practice of Brendan Lynch developed from a dialogue between the aesthetics defined by the high culture and the aesthetics of a more widespread common culture. He works across a range of mediums, focusing on material abstractions in graphite and aluminium on wood, tie-dyed canvases, and drawings and spray paintings directly on gallery walls. He also frequently works with unusual materials with subtle visual qualities—like surf wax, cigarette ash, sanded paint dust, potato chips, and even collected toenail clippings.

 

Recent solo exhibitions include Mountains Collection at Howard St and UNTITLED, New York; Inside the White cube at White Cube, London; @harleynewton at Galerie Bugada & Cargnel, Paris and Art in General Presents: Brendan Lynch + Naomi Larbi at +1 in New York City. He has recently participated in group exhibitions at Zabludowicz Collection, London; Rodolphe Janssen, Brussels and the Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, Deurle. Lynch is also a member of the Still House Group.
