Daniel Jackson

giclee on hahnemuhle 60 inches by 88 inches x 4 2008 Daniel Jackson explores the synthesis of computer code with human actions engaging with the ideas propositioned by Malevich, Mondrian, Lewitt and Halley and extending a way forward for conceptual art in this century. By controlling the parameters of the software that he has purposefully created, and with the final edit of the output, he is able to produce rigorously constructed paintings and one off prints. The large monochrome paintings create a retinal disquiet, like an interference on a screen. The noise is an overall organised treatment, highly orchestrated and meticulously worked. The software output is systematicallyadhered to and synthesized with the artist's intervention, which allows the works to be viewed as both optically textured luxury and as a cerebral, logical construction. Daniel Jackson graduated from The Slade School of Art in London and he has exhibited widely in group shows, notably: 'Junge Scene' at the Seccession, Vienna, 1998; 'Look and Feel', Buerofriedrich, Berlin, 2000; 'A Square of Ground', Jerwood Gallery, London, 2000; 'The Royal Road to the Unconscious', Freud Museum, London, 2004. and Solo exhibitions at Carter Presents London 2006 and Apt Draschan Vienna 2007
