Phil Frost’s brightly coloured letterforms and totemic masks often completely cover his anarchic surfaces, reminiscent of tribal and indigenous art. These symbols, which he refers to as “glyphic distinctions”, are painted on top of heavily textured backgrounds. Based in New York, the American painter and installation artist is self-taught, with roots in the graffiti movement, and uses a variety of mediums, including ink, spray paint, oils, and gouache. He adds all kinds of found objects to his work as well. This catalogue is published on the occasion of a solo exhibition at CAC Málaga, Frost’s first show at a European museum, which also includes his most recent work, a selection of doors.
