Why are some historical objects collected and recorded while others are forgotten? What are the forgotten histories beneath the surface? My prints/drawings on paper act as a transcript of these histories. To take away, to smudge, to rip, and to erase an image illuminates the states between memory and decay. My performances, paintings, and installations follow the works on paper where an archive is asserted while at the same time it is corroded, doubled, negated, and forgotten again.

Often acquiring several copies of the same vintage textbook, he collages repeating images of ancient art and archaeological remains onto hand-drawn geometric patterns inspired by textiles and decoration from around the word. Craven’s fusions erase particularity, suggesting the primacy of geometric abstraction in our visual vocabulary and implying that patterns and perhaps histories across cultures reflect rather than oppose each other. Relying exclusively on educational and travel sources, his juxtapositions have an eerie déjà-vu quality, a result of the cultural bedrock that is embedded in our psyches. Matthew Craven was born in Michigan. He earned a BFA from Michigan State University, and received his MFA from the School of Visual Arts, NY. He has exhibited widely in the United States and abroad, including solo and two-person exhibitions at David Shelton Gallery, Houston; DCKT Contemporary, NY; Allegra LaViola Gallery, NY; Marvelli Gallery, NY; Gallery Hijinks, San Francisco; Packing, Detroit; 101/Exhibit, Los Angeles; Asya Geisberg Gallery, NY; and Get This!

What began ten years ago as a personal pursuit to expand his way of visual thinking, the collage work soon became its own form of artistic expression and has grown to address themes beyond its original intent. Working strictly within the parameters of cutting and glueing paper to paper, Gall questions and dismantles the decision making process as it relates to our own instinctive and learned notions of what means to make art. The pieces shown here are part of an ongoing series called “Half-titled” which begin with the half-title page from books he has scavenged and is a play on the art world trope of titling art as “Untitled”.
