Five Colored Surrogates
Five Colored Surrogates by Allan McCollum presents a group of small, meticulously crafted cast hydrostone objects, each coated in layers of enamel and acrylic paint in distinct, saturated hues. The works belong to McCollum's ongoing "Surrogates" series, in which simplified, abstracted picture-like forms challenge conventional notions of originality, display, and the mass production of art. Their uniform shape and precise, glossy surfaces invite reflection on the nature of representation and the relationship between individual objects and serialized production.
