WADE GUYTON‘s “printer drawings” consist of illustrated pages torn out of exhibition catalogues, monographs and architecture books (for this particular series of works presented above, GUYTON tore images from an Italian lamp catalogue from the 1960s). With the help of a home-office ink jet printer, WADE GUYTON then adds geometric shapes to the original to create what the artist refers to as “drawings”.

Combined with photography, printmaking can provide rich surfaces and new options of manipulation that will shift meaning and presence, while providing a unity of surface.

This series is presented in a solo exhibition entitled Couleur et Fabrication at Gió Marconi in Milano until 22 July, 2011
