Marc Brotherton "Phenylketonuria"
Causey Contemporary
This event has ended.
Brotherton contends that living in the twenty-first century, we are constantly bombarded by input– be it from televisions, news sources, the Internet, or one of the many communication gadgets. In a way, Brotherton’s paintings are a form of communication, which address technological and political quandaries, but also banalities of daily life. The outcome of his work is a materialized investigation into the perplexing world in which we live. B rotherton states that his incentive to make art comes from an “...inner curiosity, a personal necessity to acknowledge an awareness that we are here together inhabiting an increasingly chaotic world.”
Brotherton is an Atlanta-based artist, who received his BFA from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque and his MFA degree from Brooklyn College, NY. He has held five solo exhibitions in New York City, and two in Georgia.
