“The most perverse twist comes in Guyton’s paintings of the Xs, the bulk of which originated from a scan of an earlier drawing to which he added others typed directly in Photoshop. The difference between them is almost imperceptible except that those imported and blown-up from the page reveal a tinge of yellow along the slightly serrated edges, while those appended directly on the computer have perfectly smooth contours and are printed in ‘pure’ black, not a composite approximation of it. “Never illustrative, Guyton’s paintings speak to an everyday screen culture of scanners and scroll bars, layered windows that slip in and out of view, thresholds of information that only reveal themselves when the jpeg loses focus, the printer falters, or the X gets a jagged edge. Technical failure is aestheticized but not romanticized. We do the best with what we have.” (Wade Guyton: Color, Power & Style, Cologne: Walther König, p. 82)
