Pattern Recognition: Jered Sprecher at Jeff Bailey Gallery

Compositional kaleidoscopes could be a useful shorthand for describing Jered Sprecher's oeuvre. As demonstrated in the cheekily titled I Always Lie, Sprecher's third solo exhibition at Jeff Bailey Gallery in New York, he is equally gifted in color combinations and media application, in a range of scales and often within the same painting. That's not to say the visual effect is erratic, but who needs stabilizing agents when the abstract noise is this awesome?! — Brian Fee, Austin contributor
