media Quotes
“Forcade’s critical rejection of the rules of photographic reproduction has now taken him, and his viewers, to a place where categories like painting and photography no longer apply. His use of a camera is a small detail in a process that is as complex and technical as that of the most advanced and abstract physics. His images which once evoked abstract lyrical paintings, have evolved into worlds without precedent; Worlds of unimagined beauty, internal coherence, and uncertainty.”
— Richard Saba, noted painter
“One can experience Tim’s work in so many ways. The story of his progress is compelling, filled with examples of technical prowess, design sophistication and a life lived through a truly amazing period of social and technological change. But dwelling on these things may be like studying the finger that points to God. We do the artist a greater honor by first looking at what he is showing us and then seeing as he has taught us to see. “
— Rick Mitchell, curator, writer, photographer
“These pictures have a quality of being painstakingly assembled rather than simply photographed.These are not the works of a 20-something who stumbled onto a revelatory vision. Rather, Tim Forcade,after an odyssey extending through lights, motors, cameras and computers has created his own vision by infusing art and technology.”
— Don Lambert, curator, writer
“There’s something undeniably intimate about his art. He is a purist, and these fleeting worlds he creates and then captures are documented exactly how he sees them. One reflects on the magic of leaves in a bucket, of the impermanence of every moment. Of the possibilities of light..”
— Kim Weinberger, Weinberger Fine Art
“A 40-year veteran in photography, Forcade has proven himself an innovator in all things image related. While some artists shun technology because they believe it somehow taints the purity of their work, Forcade has consistently embraced new technologies, back before most people had any idea the magnitude of their potential.”
— John Niccum, arts editor
