Synopsis

The publication and exhibition coincides with "Thomas Adventures in ‘Pataphysics", a major retrospective of the artist’s work at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This publication brings together approximately fifty works by Chimes, none more than six inches square. Many of the works are grouped in combinations of up to ten small works. Installed in sequence, the artist compares them to visual poems. Much of the cartoon-like imagery of the paintings is inspired by the drawings of Alfred Jarry, who has been a life-long source of inspiration for the artist. These ethereal and mysterious works also contain references to entropy, alchemy, and astronomy. The publication features a recent interview with the eighty-five year old artist with Phillip Mitsis.
