German artist Martin Denker creates an explosively personal, fantastical vision straddling—Surrealism, Pop, and Psychedelia. He constructs his images from a multitude of appropriated photographic and visual sources including news, advertising, pornography, and film-stills. Constantly inspired by the stimuli around him—from the internet, video games, psychotherapy, and art history—the images are orchestrated via image-processing/altering applications, into large-scale photographic works. Martin Denker’s AbsoluteZero will be on view until January 30, 2010 at Bruce Silverstein in New York City.
