About the Item

The Great Wave, 2014-2015 Archival Pigment Print on Watercolor Paper Paper size 34 x 48 inches / 86 x 122 cm Edition of 3 +1 Ap Vanishing Point — Monument Valley, Dead Horse Point, Grand Canyon Upturned relief patterns, sculpted out by the wind, water, and ice, dragging you down into the whirlpool of time, into the remorseless eternity of a slow-motion catastrophe. The very idea of the millions and hundreds of millions of years that were needed peacefully to ravage the surface of the earth here is a perverse one, since it brings with it an awareness of signs originating, long before man appeared, in a sort of pact of wear and erosion struck between the elements. Among this gigantic heap of signs - purely geological in essence - man will have had no significance. Jean Baudrillard, America, 1986 Andrew Erdos’ sculptures, videos, photography, and mixed-media installations explore themes related to time, light, and the sublime. His work investigates the complex relationship between humankind and its environment, and resonates with contemporary reflections led by philosophers and scientists to determine a new ontology in the age of the Anthropocene. Erdos’ overwhelming visual experiences weave together reflections on nature, culture, technology, science and religion. Drawing from his mastering of glass techniques, as well as from historical, mythical, and personal sources, Erdos constructs open narratives which results in a sensory overload for the viewer. Andrew Erdos, (b. 1985) graduated with a BFA from Alfred University. His work has been exhibited worldwide including Beijing China, St Petersburg Russia, London UK and throughout the United States. The youngest recipient of the Rakow Commission of the Corning Museum of Glass, Erdos' work is included in many private and museum collections including The New Britain Museum of American Art, CT, Toledo Museum of Art, OH and the Knoxville Museum of Art, TN. Erdos lives and works in New York City.

FORT DE SOTO WAVES #36, St Petersburg, Florida 2013
By Jay Mark Johnson
Located in Santa Monica, CA
This large format, color-photograph belongs to Jay Mark Johnson's wave series - the images from which depict the rhythmic cycling and recycling of oceanfront waves as recorded on remote coastlines around the world--in Hawaii, Florida, California, the Caribbean, Great Britain, Australia and South Africa. These artworks belong to the artist’s ongoing inquiry into the possibilities for timeline photography. For this decades-long project Johnson employs an unconventional camera system to produce seamless delineated renderings of familiar events as they occur over time. The results present an altered view of our surroundings. Artworks from Johnson’s timeline series have been exhibited extensively throughout the U.S. and Europe. They can be found in the permanent collections of the Bundestag (German Parliament) in Berlin, the Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie at Karlsruhe, the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation, the Phoenix Art Museum, the Langen Foundation, Hombroich, Germany, the Peter Klein...
