Robert Loughlin: 'I Wanna Be Adord'
Catalog Projects
Fifty works on trash cans, hub caps, table leafs and dust jackets by Robert Loughlin, from the collection of Paul Johnson. The selection within expresses Loughlin's mastery of repetition as conceptual tool; a recurring dream, self-contextualizing with its given object, each of which acting as vital subtext for the work, the life, and the artist himself.
