Wade Guyton
(American, born 1972)
Biography
Wade Guyton is a contemporary American artist known for his black monochrome inkjet-printed paintings. Guyton’s work is formal in nature, and can be seen as a revisitation of Modernist ideals bracketed within the questions and issues of digital reproduction and the history of appropriation art practices. By treating the mechanical processes of the large-format printer as similar to darkroom printing or paint mixing, he is able to reinvigorate a classic methodology into a new medium. Born in 1972 in Hammond, IN, Guyton grew up in Lake City, TN and went on to attend the University of Tennessee and later Hunter College, where he received his MFA in 1998. In 2012, Guyton was the subject of a retrospective at the Whitney Museum of Art—ironic, as he had been denied admission into the Whitney Independent Study Program on two separate occasions prior. Today. Guyton’s works are held in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, the Kunstmuseum Basel, and the Art Institute of Chicago, among others. He lives and works in New York, NY
