We’re thrilled to join Ohio State’s Department of Art in welcoming Patterson, whose works have been described as “subjective documentary of the historical past” by the New York Times.
Photography lies at the heart of Patterson’s work, which also includes archival ephemera, drawings, hand-painted signs, monoprints, readymades, shotgun blasts, telephones, and televisions. Patterson’s layered, multiyear projects most often play with archives, authorship, memory, place, and time. His projects have included a five-year investigative retracing of a true crime story; an irreverent, semi-biographical study of his hometown; and a memento mori (a symbolic warning of death) to a grocery store created over a 20-year period. Stay after the talk for a Q&A with Patterson.
