Tad Lauritzen Wright

Tad Lauritzen Wright kicks off February in Nashville with BEAUTY IS A BYPRODUCT, an exhibition exploring literal definitions and the physicality of a single line, a foundational element of his career.

"My investigation in abstraction is based on exploring actual and conceptual problems through manipulation of line, texture, and color. Investigation and experimentation are more important to me than refinement. I see beauty as a byproduct. I am as defiantly against art about nothing as I am against art that is expected. My work navigates towards peaceful chaos that finds meditation and irritation in the same sentence. I look to the self-taught and the madness that pushes boundaries for answers that do not exist. I have intentionally abandoned as much from my artistic past as possible without losing my artistic identity in the work." — TLW 2/23
