Ted Kincaid has systematically subverted the notion of an objective photographic record and examines the play between painting and photography. His work explored the discourse between a manufactured image and an actual photograph and encompasses a myriad of art-making processes, both historical and modern. He pivots seamlessly between historical photographic media, hand drawing, ceramic murals, printmaking, and digital processes. His work voraciously pulls subject matter from every corner of his observations – poetry, politics, death, sexuality, dark humor, climate change, and the destructive power of nature are all woven into his imagery.
Kincaid is one of the most recognized and respected artists from North Texas. He has been reviewed in ARTFORUM and in included in the permanent collections of the Dallas Museum of Art, L’Associazione Fotografica Imago, Arezzo, Italy, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, the Museum of Fine Arts in San Antonio, The Columbus Museum, and the Georgia Museum of Art. His work is included in the corporate collections of American Airlines Corporation, Canon Corporation, Capital One Corporate Collection, JP Morgan Chase, Fidelity Corporate Art Collection, and the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, the Microsoft Art Collection, and Neiman Marcus Collection, the Perot Foundation, Pfizer Inc., Toyota Motor Company North America, and the U.S. State Department.
