HOMEWORK #3 Raymond Pettibon: Survivor Series 20 – 27 May 2020 ‘Survivor Series’ comprises seven new drawings by Raymond Pettibon and marks the third presentation in HOMEWORK – our series of online exhibitions featuring work from the homes and studios of artists. To view the exhibition, follow the link in bio. In these new works on paper, Pettibon draws together an array of high- and low-brow cultural cues and motifs – from the Brooklyn Bridge and Auguste Rodin’s renowned sculpture ‘The Thinker’, to Art Clokey’s Claymation character Gumby – together with evocative handwritten aphorisms and quotations. Residing at the intersection of painting, illustration and language, the drawings are suffused with narrative potential, sharp social commentary, humour and satire, distinctive of the symbiotic tension the artist engenders between imagery and text. Of this relationship, Pettibon has remarked: ‘where the image stops and the words begin is not that clear cut… It’s more a give and take, a back and forth, dialectic almost in between the two and/or both.’ #RaymondPettibon #SurvivorSeries #SCHQhomework #onlineexhibition #worksonpaper @raydog699 All images: © the artist.
