Jered Sprecher
"My work is based in an eclectic aesthetic. My paintings extract elements from the high and low of visual culture. This culture and crush of images is in constant flux. My paintings hold no single allegiance, but are constantly shifting from one form of representation to another. The paintings function as sources of both inductive and deductive image making processes. In our day-to-day life, one is seldom afforded the time to comprehend what one is viewing under the barrage of images produced by humankind. I try to grasp a single moment, a glance, a small epiphany. The paintings are haptic documents of these remnants of communication.
Jered Sprecher received his MFA from the University of Iowa. Sprecher has had solo exhibitions at Jeff Bailey Gallery in New York, Wendy Cooper Gallery in Chicago, Steven Zevitas Gallery in Boston, Kinkead Contemporary in Los Angeles, and the Gallery 16 in San Francisco. His work has been included in exhibitions at venues such as The Drawing Center, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts, Indiana University, Irish Museum of Modern Art, and the Knoxville Museum of Art . Sprecher has participated in the Artist Residency Program at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin and the Marie Walsh Sharpe Space Program in New York. In 2009, he was the recipient of a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. He has taught at Princeton University and Cornell University. Currently he is an Associate Professor at The University of Tennessee.
Jered Sprecher will deliver a public lecture on Thursday November 17, 5pm, at the Science and Math Learning Center (SMLC) room 102.
