Description

Andrei Cădere was a Romanian conceptual artist and a key figure of the 1970s avant-garde generation that contested the nature of the art object and its institutional framework. He emigrated to France in 1967, soon becoming known as “The Stick Man”. His nickname was gained from his appearances in public sites and at gallery openings with his “Barres de bois rond'” – round wooden bars painted in stripes of a limited colour palette that he carried on his shoulders. Cădere was one of the first artists to realise that objects were inseparable from the market and institutional contexts. He had a close relationship with painting in his practice, considering even his wooden bars as “endless paintings”. The work Red Moon dates from his period in communist Romania, during which he painted works of a ludic, surrealist dimension with op-art insertions. In contrast to the minimalism for which he is well-known, the works from the 1960s reveal a lesser-known, reflexive and sometimes self-ironic view of the world.
