Description
Cheyney Thompson Passages by Christian Schaernack is a comprehensive study of contemporary artist Cheyney Thompson's work. Thompson's art responds to ongoing debates about how we depict and understand the world visually, and Schaernack explores these themes in depth. Thompson's approach to reality is complex, considering probabilities rather than absolutes. His artistic process often incorporates elements of contingency, such as using computer algorithms that he subverts or follows. This book delves into art history, intellectual history, and continental philosophy to provide a multifaceted understanding of Thompson's work. From his early "black paintings" to his Chronochromes and Stochastic Process Paintings, Schaernack presents a nuanced analysis of an artist who challenges our assumptions about the world's order.
