S.C.S. (Suprematism/Constructivism/Schematics) RED.3 Collage

Mixed Media- paper, sweat, saliva, dirt, marker, gel medium on merchant poster. from S.C.S. (Suprematism/Constructivism/Schematics) Series is a series exploring the interrelationship between contemporary visual cue, historic art movements & architectural structure. - Suprematism was an art movement, focused on basic geometric forms, such as circles, squares, lines, and rectangles, painted in a limited range of colors. - Constructivism was an artistic and architectural philosophy that originated in Russia beginning in 1913 by Vladimir Tatlin. This was a rejection of the idea of autonomous art. He wanted 'to construct' art. The movement was in favour of art as a practice for social purposes. - A Schematic, or schematic diagram, is a representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the information the schematic is intended to convey, and may add unrealistic elements that aid comprehension Cody Bayne makes mixed-media works, which fall into the category of Neo-Urban Expressionism. He has been compared with key artists of the 20th century - Jasper Johns, Rauschenberg & Warhol due to how he creates work that establishes a relationship to contemporary culture by forging a new visual language. N.U.E. offers the opportunity for the sociocultural comment that lays at the intersection of Graffiti, Art Washing & the Contemporary Art by establishing a new urban vernacular that can also be referred to as Urban Informalism. Cody has been featured by Saatchi Art's Chief Curator for their most prestigious feature, Invest In Art series in 2016 He has shown in Los Angeles, Santa Monica, New York City, Toronto, Palm Springs, Miami, and Basel. Cody’s artwork has been curated into major exhibitions along side works by important artists, such as Robert Motherwell, Banksy, Shepard Fairey, Robert Rauschenburg and Murakami (to name a few). His work is in collections across the United States, Canada and Europe.
