Artist Talk: Carol Padberg December 4, 2008

By using fragments of found typography to take apart and put back together language, Padberg creates visual improvisations.

Sometimes comical, sometimes minimal, these images ask questions about design, nonverbal language, and the modernist lineage of abstract painting.
