Andreas Slominski at Thaddaeus Ropac

When speaking about Slominski’s slipperiness, or trap lain for viewers, we refer to a difficulty in choosing frames to enter the work. The uncertainty requires our critical apparatus realigned. Making “sense” of Slominski’s exhibtionary past pulls apart like string cheese, the objects readily peel divergent threaded reference, until we have handfuls of palmed cheese chasing an artist trying to stay one step ahead in luring the viewer to a mire lost in. The will-o-wisp Slominski not above pulling the rug, or laying slick fluids. Tread carefully. Read the signs.
