Summary:
Rude in the Good Way explores desire as both subject and method within Roe Ethridge’s complex visual bricolage of commercial glamour, errant snapshots, private sexuality and studio play. Working through his characteristically oblique, offhand style, Ethridge lets sexuality, identity, seduction and the camera drift into the same plane, never fully separating one from the other. Loosely woven fugues of images converge, always cheekily winking toward something just out of frame: technicolor flash typologies of mouldy peaches, hyper-composite images of Lindsay Lohan, and Chanel still lifes both luxurious and lurid move alongside intimate, dressed-down snapshots of Ethridge’s collaborator Lulu Sylbert, unresolved glimpses into painter John Currin’s erotically charged studio, sarcastic self-portraits, and constant callbacks to the unmistakable image world Ethridge has built over the past twenty years, where photographs refuse to be pinned down or left unstimulated.

Summary:
Loose Joints is proud to present "In the beginning," a three-volume set reuniting Roe Ethridge’s three formative, self-published books – County Line, Orange Grove and Spare Bedroom – originally released in 2004–05 and long out of print. Across these early volumes, Ethridge stages a sharp, playful inquiry into the American everyday. From rotting Florida citrus orchards to half-built suburban interiors and the static hum of strip-mall signage, each book turns on a clear typological register, where the familiar slides easily into the strange. Ethridge sets his pictures in a dialogue with photographic archetypes – catalogues, calendars, studio models, kitsch displays – using them to probe how images shape, naturalise and sometimes fracture American life.

Summary:
Roe Ethridge’s practice is that of a restless maverick and his constantly evolving visual sensibility has spawned a myriad of copyists in what has become known as ‘the new school of synthetic photography’. In this his latest artist book, Ethridge conflates a rich array of photographic tropes, combining personal documentary images made in western Palm Beach County, his mother’s childhood home, with surreal collage works, and a series discarded from a Chanel fashion shoot.
