Andre Cadere

“Furthermore, Cadere distanced himself from the phenomenological perception of the exhibition space as advocated by Minimalism, while at the same time criticized the idealistic perfection of its fabricated objects, devoid of all error. His work is undeniably conceptual in the sense that he used a set of pre-established rules to fabricate his wooden bars, which he designated as paintings, and issued certificates to authenticate and sell the pieces. Even if crafted by the artist (and displaying this handmade character), the making of the bars relied on a system of mathematical permutations that implied a carefully calculated interplay of color and error at the level of the cylindrical segments that made up each piece.”
