David Kramer's humorous ramblings tell of an American Dream as Sisyphus' rock.
Kramer's videos, installations, paintings and drawings satirize his own unrequited and boundless desire for things that offer only temporary fulfillment and diversion
from the existential condition. Things that are quickly used up and discarded and deemed worthless once in the artist's possession.
Kramer's installation at Volta is a recreation of his actual living room at home (using his family's sectional sofa as a starting point), and converting it into the bachelor swing pad of the artist vision of adult life based on his assumption of what this would be like, formulated during his 1970's adolescence.
David Kramer's work has been exhibited throughout North America (including The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Brooklyn Museum of Art, Pierogi 2000 (Bklyn), Feigen Contemporary (NYC), and RoeblingHall (NYC)) as well as various venues in Europe.
