    Melanopsin Vision
    A Small Radius of Light
    Red Grooms and the Heroism of Modern Life
    • Red Grooms' artistic style blends humor and social commentary, showcasing America's obsession with sports, business, and celebrity through whimsical mixed-media constructions. This catalogue features forty works that highlight Grooms' unique approach, where parody meets homage, evident in his portrayals of figures like Pablo Picasso and Fats Domino. Joyce Henri Robinson's essay likens Grooms to Baudelaire's flaneur, emphasizing his exploration of urban life as a spectacle filled with new forms of heroism, particularly exemplified by his installation of a full-scale New York City bus.
