July: Fred Rodger

Fred Rodger

Give a brief description of your upcoming show. And what might have inspired it.

I was just thinking about bikes in general. I always admired their beauty, simplicity, and functionality.

 

How have you expanded existing themes/ideas for which you are best known/or if this body of work is a great deviation from your norm, what inspired this new approach?

I’ve done a bicycle series before, but this time I focused my attention on the actual various styles of bikes that were manufactured by the companies that built them. Of course, bikes don’t operate alone, so I powered them with ’my people’.

 

Stylistically and/or technically, what do you hope collectors notice in your new work?

I hope the works make them smile, and maybe bring back a memory or two.

 

Add any additional info that might interest the viewer.

I hope everyone takes a few moments to read the short captions I wrote for each one.
