The Art of Peter Cain
Peter Cain was a painter and draftsperson born in Orange, New Jersey. His artistic practice involved the meticulous execution of paintings and drawings, often focusing on surreal and aberrant versions of automobiles. His early works drew subjects from advertisements for luxury sedans, high end sports coupes, muscle cars, and rare or vintage automobiles. To create these forms, he frequently began by collaging source material to produce distorted and abbreviated versions of a vehicle's original shape, using these collages as studies for his final paintings.
In his later work, Cain shifted his focus toward Los Angeles gas stations and convenience stores. These landscapes were characterized by a lack of human presence and the erasure of logos and type from various signs. In these pieces, foliage was rendered using micro-faceted masses of green paint. His career included representation by the Matthew Marks Gallery in New York and participation in the Whitney Biennial.
