① Artwork:
Thames
The title of this painting references how the author Lewis Caroll created the stories that eventually became Alice in Wonderland. Like other works from this series, this painting functions as a landscape. Meanwhile, organ-like entities mix with bones and cellular-looking structures to create an abstract melange of marks and shapes.
Rives Granade is interested in the changeability of form in his paintings, particularly as it relates to ideas of translation and reinterpretation. His protean marks are heavily influenced by modernist forms of expressionism and tend to occupy a space between abstraction and representation. In his work, images subtly emerge, become legible and dissipate.

Rives Granade is interested in the changeability of form in his paintings, particularly as it relates to ideas of translation and re-interpretation. His protean marks are heavily influenced by modernist forms of expressionism and tend to occupy a space between abstraction and representation. In his work, images subtly emerge, become legible and dissipate.
Rives Granade was born in 1979 in Mobile, AL, and lives in Los Angeles, CA. He received his MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute in San Francisco, CA (2008) and a BA in philosophy from Washington and Lee University in Lexington, VA (2002).
Granade has mounted solo and two-person exhibitions at OCHI Gallery in Los Angeles, CA (2022, 2018, 2015); Ochi Gallery in Ketchum, ID (2019); and Duncan Miller Project Space in Santa Monica, CA (2011).
