Geoffrey Chadsey appropriates his imagery from art history, pop/alternative magazines, the Internet, and snapshots of family and friends. Working in watercolor pencil on vellum and Mylar, Chadsey blends fashion (both high and hip-hop) and representative images of youth culture and gay life (found via magazines and Internet sites) to create powerfully disconcerting and humorous subjects and scenes that are characterized by an off-putting sense of the familiar, yet which circumvent an identifiable personal narrative. To randomly accessed images, Chadsey mixes in the facial features of historical and contemporary public figures such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Elvis Presley, and Albert Einstein; heads from paintings by Gustav Klimt and Diego Velazquez; rap stars such as Snoop Dogg, Juvenile, and Xzibit; and Chadsey’s own father, brother and sisters.
Chadsey’s strength comes from his skill at seamlessly melding his disparate source material. Challenging our facility to read the signs of masculinity, femininity, race, attitude, and expression, Chadsey’s images spin a complex web of emotion and desire.
Geoffrey Chadsey was born in 1967 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He received an A.B. degree in Visual and Environmental Studies from Harvard Universit in 1989 and an MFA degree in Photography and Drawing from the California College of Arts and Crafts in 1996. He has won several awards, including the prestigious Eureka Fellowship from the Fleischhacker Foundation in San Francisco. Chadsey lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
