The Office is pleased to announce: Transmundane Diversions, an installation of new work by Adam Rompel. For this exhibition, three distinct bodies of work are presented that find commonality in emphasizing the abstracted moment.
Temp Work, the first project, documents the recontextualization of Minimal Art and Land Art for the corporate environment. While at his day job, the artist surreptitiously produced and then briefly displayed objects using materials available from the supply & break rooms. Secondly, Instances of Transcendent Bliss offers a series of transitory moments of affected happiness. And lastly, Often Better Thought About, attempts to document the sporadic instances of the artistic process through a systematic cataloging of ideas.
Adam Rompel was born and raised in Los Angeles. He received his BA in Art Practice with a focus on New Genres & Installation from the University of California, Berkeley in 1998. Since school, Rompel had exhibited regularly until he decided “to open a gallery that I would like to show in” (Lucky Tackle, 2002 - 2005). Most recently, he participated in New Langton Art’s Five Habitats: Squatting at Langton. Currently, he splits his time between Oakland and San Francisco.
