DARREN BADER AT ACRUSH

For the past two decades Darren Bader has challenged and re-pieced the expectations of what art, both conceptually and on a physical level, can be and do. In individual works and exhibitions gestures are exposed and twisted with an eye towards an openness and egalitarianism. His work is often absurd or humorous without sacrificing any sincerity or intelligence. Character Study, his presentation at ACRUSH, picks up many of the threads that define Bader’s work: an expansion and confusion of the object nature of art, an appetite for the capacity of technology, and the way all of this is situated in our viewing world.
