Cedric Alessandro Chambers is a Hispanic American author and oil painter. Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog is a book about Chambers's debut dual person art show, and Phenomena of paint is a reference to Dagmar Nickerson's body of work. Chambers approaches the subject in a meta-modern context, he uses fine art techniques to re-interpret rather than to re-create famous works of art. This method is what separates Chambers's artwork from postmodern interpretations of famous paintings such as Marcel Duchamp's Mona Lisa with a mustache. Chambers states in the accompanying show catalog that art should be a genuine embodiment of the Zeitgeist, a Hegelian word for spirit of the time. As a Colorado resident who drives a Subaru, Chambers believes that his passion to paint portraits of his dog Coco is a genuine expression of Colorado Culture. Where residents are known to obsess over their dogs.
