While any over-arching theme would be inappropriate for an exhibition of artists so disparate in method, this group, as a whole, does exhibit tendencies in common. Definitive choices made between component signs within an individual work are emphasized over a serial reliance on a type of image or method that “brands” a signature style. Lattu, the curator, states “this emphasis on experimentation composed between signs within a single work seems to be a means to impact a complexity on individual artworks that has largely been overlooked in the shadow of Warhol, as well as the rise of photography in the artworld. It is tied to the demise of a recognized canon, that has accompanied the impulse to quotation in art during post-modernism.” These works do not rely upon a quotation of a pop-culture image to re-site the individual and the activity of art-making. Rather, they emphasize the decisions made arranging complicated signs in a manner that is analogous to the complexities of our world.
