Timeline
Along with artists like Walker, Seth Price and Tauba Auerbach, Guyton is regarded by some to be at the forefront of a generation that has been reconsidering both appropriation art and abstract art through the 21st-century lens of digital technology.
Guyton and Price operate the Leopard Press, which releases publications of their work and that of their friends.
Wade Guyton (born 1972) is an American post-conceptual artist who among other things makes digital paintings on canvas using scanners and digital inkjet technology.
Guyton was born in Hammond, Indiana, in 1972, and grew up in the small town of Lake City, Tennessee.
His father, who died when Guyton was two, and his stepfather, also deceased, were both steelworkers.
Guyton's mother, a homemaker, sometimes worked as a secretary at the Catholic church the family attended.
Guyton received a BA from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, in 1995.
He moved to New York in 1996.
Twice rejected for admission to the Whitney Independent Study Program, he attended Hunter College's MFA program from 1996 to 1998.
While a student at Hunter College, Guyton counted Robert Morris among his teachers.
Guyton first got a job at St. Mark's Bookshop in the East Village and then worked at Dia:Chelsea as a guard.
Guyton's early "drawings" from around 2003, are filled with black Xs over ripped-out book pages.
The color black and the letter X became signature motifs.
His tool is an Epson Stylus Pro 9600 inkjet printer, a machine used for large-format prints.
Using a computer, Guyton produces paintings.
In 2003, Guyton showed at Power House Memphis.
When Dia closed its Chelsea space in 2004, his severance pay allowed him to continue renting an East Village studio and apartment without having to look for another job.
He won the Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists award (2004).
In a statement of 2004, Guyton said:
"Recently I've been using Epson inkjet printers and flatbed scanners as tools to make works that act like drawings, paintings, even sculptures. I spend a lot of time with books and so logically I've ended up using pages from books as material- pages torn from books and fed through an inkjet printer. I've been using a very pared down vocabulary of simple shapes and letters drawn or typed in Microsoft Word, then printed on top of these pages from catalogues, magazines, posters- and even blank canvas. The resulting images aren't exactly what the machines are designed for - slick digital photographs. There is often a struggle between the printer and my material - and the traces of this are left on the surface: snags, drips, streaks, mis-registrations, blurs."New York Times Paintings
Between 2004-14 exhibitions of his work were held at Kunstverein Hamburg; Portikus, Frankfurt am Main; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, Belgium; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Kunsthaus Bregenz, Austria; Wiener Secession, Vienna; Kunsthalle Zürich, Zürich.
Since 2005, Guyton has worked on canvas.
Typically Guyton's work is exhibited in a series.
The following year, curators Daniel Birnbaum and Hans Ulrich Obrist included Guyton/Walker's brightly colored Stacks of paint cans in their "Uncertain States of America" survey at Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art in Oslo.
In 2009, Guyton and Kelley Walker were invited by Birnbaum to participate at the Venice Biennale, where they exhibited canvases and pieces of drywall at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni.
As he told The Times in 2012, “I chose the computer because it was right here” — and while making screenshots of the website permits this least emotional of painters a rare dose of topicality, Mr. Guyton also treats nytimes.com as a kind of default.”
In November 2016, Guyton exhibits a new series of New York Times Paintings that show headlines about violence around the world and news leading up to the 2016 US Presidential Election.
The exhibition opens the day after Hillary Clinton loses the election to Donald Trump.
Jason Farago in the New York Times writes “Mr.
Guyton’s paintings … do not depict pages of a newspaper at all — they depict the website of a media company that publishes news in many formats.
That is a significant difference.
The Serpentine Gallery in London described Guyton’s work as underscoring, “The studio’s potential, not just as a locus for discussion and production, but as a material in and of itself.” His exhibition Das New Yorker Atelier in 2017 was a collaboration with Museum Brandhorst in Munich, Germany.
Guyton exhibited paintings that depicted artworks in process in his studio in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
Three studio assistants are also depicted in a moment of conversation in the kitchen of his studio.
The title of the exhibition makes a reference to a painting by Swiss artist Hans Jakob Oeri entitled Das Pariser Atelier.
In 2018, the artist makes another work that shows studio assistants from behind scrutinizing a work on the wall.
The exhibition Patagonia presumably took its title from the graphics printed on the t shirt of one of the figures in the painting.
