This publication accompanied the exhibition Theo A. Rosenblum: "I Didn't Know There Was Chicken In This Soup" that took place June 24 August 1, 2009 at 20 Hoxton Square in London, United Kingdom, presented by Vito Schnabel and 20 Hoxton Square. The art works, the artist s first solo show, included humorous paintings, sculptures and drawings influenced by comic books, horror films and medieval art, and allegorical painting. Rosenblum grew up in Manhattan; his mother, Jane Kaplowitz, is a painter, and his father, Robert Rosenblum, was curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum and a Professor at New York University. Rosenblum's work parodied the world around us and offered a visceral thrill, which provoked an immediate reaction and served as a draw that allowed the audience deeper entry into the work. Rosenblum first envisioned an expected interaction between two related objects, which he then disrupted, in the way that culture or science would disrupt a natural interaction, or nature would disrupt a manmade interaction. Rosenblum's work is about "the natural order of the world, mankind's artificial replications and interruptions of order and his own scepticism and fears this generates "…in other words, life can often make you feel like a shit magnet…". Rosenblum is a New York-based artist educated at Cooper Union School of Art. He has exhibited throughout the United States and has been included in several group shows, including: A Better History at the American Standard Gallery in New York, NY (2009), Invasions at 7Eleven Gallery in New York, NY (2008), Dutch Elm Disease in the Painting and Sculpture Collection at Gavin Brown s Enterprise @ Passerby in New York, NY (2007), Kamp K48 at John Connelly Presents in New York, NY (2006) and The Zine Unbound: Kults, Werewolves and Sarcastic Hippies at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, CA (2005).
