Adam Pendleton is a NewYork conceptual artist known for his multi-disciplinary practice moving
between painting, publishing, photographic collage, video and performance. He is best known for
his series of graphic screenprinted canvases entitled
Black Dada
- in 2011 Pendleton’s
Black Dada
(LK/LC/AA)
was acquired by The Museum of Modern Art. According to Pace Gallery, which has
represented Pendleton since 2012, his work centers on an engagement with language, in both the
figurative and literal senses, and the re-contextualization of history through appropriated imagery
to establish alternative interpretations of the present and, as the artist has explained,“a future dynamic
where new historical narratives and meanings can exist.”
