Ryan Sullivan's *June 3, 2009 – February 12, 2010* is an oil on canvas work whose title marks the span of time during which the painting was made, foregrounding process and duration as central to the work's meaning. Sullivan's practice involves pouring and layering paint in ways that resist direct authorial control, resulting in surfaces of rich, accidental texture and depth. The finished canvas serves as both object and record, preserving the physical traces of an extended, contingent act of making.
