Artist Adam Pendleton (@pendleton.adam) and longtime collaborator, architect Frederick Tang (@fredericktangarchitecture) recently turned two former storefronts in Brooklyn into a tailor-made studio for Pendleton. Through invitingly tall glass gallery doors, shipped from Italy, they carved out a series of discrete private chambers, as well as a 13-foot-high white box viewing room. On the building’s brick façade they added a band of raked black stucco that calls to mind the textural surfaces of Pendleton’s paintings. “At an institution, my goal is to deconstruct, reimagine, or repurpose,” Pendleton says. “That’s one of the things a painting can do, and I think that’s what good architecture does. It repurposes space. It enacts transformation.” Step inside the Clinton Hill studio at the link in our bio.
