About the Item

"Cement Sucking"
mixed media on Mylar, 47" x 44", 2014
This item is not framed
In this piece, Conradt collages two men who are digging for something on top of a cement road. The irony of course is that normal shovels could not dig into cement. Perhaps this shadows the idea in suburban life that no matter how hard you try, you can never escape small town life.
Matthew Conradt’s mixed media and photo transfer works investigate the current disarray of the American Dream. Growing up in the mid-western rust belt, Conradt forages for images in newspapers and magazines that are both familiar and alien to his experience. Decadent interiors, wood paneling from trailer homes and wide-open, desolate landscapes become portents and signifiers of the substantial socio-economic and cultural differences that currently exist in the United States. With collages that meld and blend into a dream-like state of America past and present, we see a transition of American culture from within eras and classes mashed up like a palimpsest of conflicted experiences.
Matthew Conradt received his Masters in Fine Art from Pratt Institute in 2008. Later that year Conradt was an Artist-In- Residence at the Cooper Union School of Art and was a part of the Artist-In-The-Marketplace Biennial at the Bronx Museum of Art in 2012. He was also featured as a solo presentation at Volta Art Fair in 2014. His work has been widely exhibited in the US and abroad and has been placed in significant US and European collections. He has been featured in numerous publications and art blogs such as the New York Times. Matthew currently lives and works in Brooklyn.
