From the New York Times review of Deeper Down There (20 May 2005): “Adam Pendleton, a young painter and Conceptualist, takes a coolly intellectual approach to hot subject matter. He distills (truncated) lines from modern African-American literature and music into poetic or vernacular phrases that tend to have romantic urgency: 'Fondle the sky,' 'I need to be loved,' 'I’ll make you my own dairy queen,' and so on. And then he silkscreens these bits of found language in neat, colored block letters onto smooth single-color canvases or onto small pieces of colored or black paper”. (Inventory #: 9013)
