GRIMM is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of Anthony Cudahy's Arthur Russell on the shore (2023) by The David and Indrė Roberts Collection in London (UK).
Cudahy’s figurative paintings piece together enigmatic scenes of specific objects and equivocal environments from interwoven references drawn from Queer archives, art history, film, poetry, friends, and his own autobiography. His fluid application of paint and idiosyncratic palette—at moments sullen, earthen, corporeal and at others high-key, acidic, artificial—animates the ongoing push and pull between the real and surreal across his practice. Through his art, Cudahy explores the hazy slippages of subjectivity in the digital age.
