Today's Brew | Christopher Wool

Christopher Wool is Kim Gordon's favorite painter...and Wool does the album art for the band's current album "Rather Ripped".

"The reductive painting made by Christopher Wool pares down artistic expression not in order to reveal an essential truth but rather to make the viewer aware of his or her expectations. The paintings orchestrate an elaborate refusal to do what is expected of the medium, thereby turning the whole process of making images inside out." (Excerpt taken from The Broad Art Foundation)
