Specialist note

“Everything in my work has become very matter of fact: BAND, System of Display, The Revival, and Black Dada. Black and Dada creates a relationship on paper that is a literal merging of two things. Dada, meaning yes, yes and black as an open-ended signifier. Taking these very basic notions and allowing them to become a functioning definition—something you can put in someone’s hands—is how I hope to repoliticize a neo-avant-garde.”
—Adam Pendleton
