Brandt-Roberts Galleries is pleased to announce the exhibition, Under Construction, featuring paintings by internationally acclaimed, and Ohio- based artist Terry Rodgers.
“Everything is always under construction… the internet, fashion, our cities, our lives.” —TR
Terry Rodgers' current work focuses on portraying body politics. His large-scale paintings are a
compression and dissection of our rampant imaginations and meditated influences. But,
Rodgers goes beyond the representational working in a variety of other media from exuberant
and visceral sculptures in bronze, to playful mixed media sculpture, to his gestural drawings and
small paintings, to inventive constructed archival prints, and more. Together, his body of work
forms a deliberately disorienting constructed whole. He has accumulated a huge stash of his
own photographs, drawings, and found images to create an unexpected take on contemporary
life and the texture of our world.
Rodgers is an internationally recognized artist whose first solo European museum exhibition
opened in 2009. His work has been in Art Basel, and three of his monumental figurative
canvases were in the Biennale al de Valencia. He has had solo gallery exhibitions throughout
the United States and Europe. Several books about his work have been published including a
new comprehensive book due out in 2023. In 2017, Rodgers collaborated with the esteemed
French glass company, Lalique. Only a handful of contemporary artists have been chosen to
work with Lalique. The resulting Sirènes crystal vase was honored with the Land Rover Born
Award.
Under Construction is on view from Saturday, October 1st through Sunday, October 30th during gallery hours, Wednesday through Sunday, 1-5pm, and by private appointment.
