Andrew Humke, Freedom Routine, installation view, photo by Alexander Boeschenstein

Andrew Humke paints hypnotic disciplines in bright oils, on large unstretched canvases. Singular concepts are assembled from ancient motifs, a rococo brutalism. The arch, the shell, the flowering bush, sun, star and sky repeat and reverse in colors that float with light. The paintings’ margins are streaked with raucous warm-ups.

Freedom Routine zine

Accompanying the paintings is a group show of art instructions in the form of a zine. Freedom Routine compiles art scores by a group of mostly Austin-based artists working from or adjacent to a conceptualist tradition. The texts are recipes for manifesting art in life. Download a pdf.
