Urs Fischer Band-AIDS: Band-Aids

Band-Aids brings together two separately exhibited series of silkscreened paintings with colored sculpted resin frames by New York based artist Urs Fischer (born 1973), produced in 2018.
The artist composed the collective 57 works entirely in an app on his iPhone, a tool always on hand in almost any situation, allowing him to keep creating at any moment. When translated from device to painting medium, the resulting works have a luminous quality.
Fischer’s process blends drawing, painting and silkscreen to create groupings that react with each other to form dynamic and varied narratives. Echoes of subjects present in Fischer’s early works cats, bread houses, birds personify romance and playfulness in this highly surreal series.
