Andrea Champlin and Bradley Rubenstein
Collaboration Installation
September 8–October 1, 1989

In contrast to the art-as commodity or art-as-self-aggrandizement which has been said to preoccupy many of todays artists, Andrea Champlin and Bradley Rubenstein see the significance of their work as lying in the investigation and communication of ideas in a collaborative process. Their collective imagery is freely borrowed from a variety of popular sources: the anonymous ‘family’ snapshot religious devotional imagery, comic books and historical and contemporary art icons.
