An encounter with "Rad" is not merely an aesthetic experience but a philosophical odyssey, a journey into the essence of youth culture, the timeless, absolute, unchangeable ideas that exist beyond the constraints of time and space.


After the success of "96° in the Shade" and "Traces of Truth," artist Barry Sutton takes us on yet another visionary journey with his innovative exhibition, "Rad: The Epic Story of Youth Culture As Seen Through the Lens of a Photographer and an Algorithm."

Sutton, acclaimed for his evocative portrayal of youth culture and beach life, breaks conventional boundaries once more by extending his mastery to synthetic photography. In the shared space of technology and art, Sutton and an algorithm weave an intricate narrative of youth culture, a story that surpasses the limitations of traditional lens-based arts, presenting a perspective that is both radical and refreshingly unique.

"Rad" explores the complexities of youth culture through an exciting dialogue between the ephemeral and the eternal, the concrete and the abstract, the physical and the digital. It uncovers a layer of reality unseen by the naked eye, a reality that only exists when the malleable subjectivity of human perception meets the relentless objectivity of the algorithm.

We witness the idiosyncrasies of youth culture, its passions and struggles, joys and rebellions, through an unorthodox perspective. Each photograph, though synthetically created, teems with life, authenticity, and a sublime level of detail that pushes us to question our understanding of the "real."

In "Rad," Sutton challenges us to embrace the intersection of art and technology, to explore the untapped depths of our culture, and ultimately to redefine our perception of reality. The exhibition invites us to look beyond the physical world, into a realm that is as profound as it is abstract. An encounter with "Rad" is not merely an aesthetic experience but a philosophical odyssey, a journey into the essence of youth culture, the timeless, absolute, unchangeable ideas that exist beyond the constraints of time and space.
