D'Ette Nogle

"A NO-NAME PAINTING THAT LOOKS BLUE-CHIP"
2011
Acrylic and Silkscreen on Canvas on board
16" H x 12" x .5" D
edition 3 of 12

Los Angeles artist D'Ette Nogle's work investigates the meaning and processes of making art and is most often realized in installations that involve video and performance as well as material objects that act as surrogates for the ideas and themes she explores.
The quote that comprises both the title and the composition of the painting was found in a now defunct shelter magazine among a list of decorating tips.
Nogle has taken the advice and produced the object described in a literal fashion.
The project will be completed when the idea/object goes home with a collector and its reproduction is published once again in a decor magazine.
