Two walls, for example, just as you enter the gallery, are hung with modestly-sized works (30 in total)\u2014all invoking a surreal medley of improbable collisions of objects and events, and all of which are untitled. As the exhibition branches off to the back of the gallery, the 12 works the show is titled after, <i>Sons<\/i>, have a strangely magisterial quality about them\u2014perhaps due to the fact that they mingle disturbingly militaristic themes with a cartoon fantasia color palette. Although they\u2019re different bodies of work, the fact that Rand\u2019s untitled pieces are being shown alongside his paintings made after Francisco de Zurbar\u00e1n\u2019s <i>Jacob and His Twelve Sons<\/i> suggests some kind of overlap in methodology, if not theme.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3433a47 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"3433a47\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;masonry&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/2-1.png\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3433a47\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA3MjcsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9hdG8udmlzaW9uXC9tYWdhemluZVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNlwvMDFcLzItMS5wbmciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiIzNDMzYTQ3In0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/2-1-768x538.png\" data-width=\"768\" data-height=\"538\" aria-label=\"Das Bild zeigt die Ausstellungsansicht von Archie Rands &quot;Sons&quot; in der CFA Galerie.\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/3-1.png\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"3433a47\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA3MjgsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9hdG8udmlzaW9uXC9tYWdhemluZVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNlwvMDFcLzMtMS5wbmciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiIzNDMzYTQ3In0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/3-1-768x536.png\" data-width=\"768\" data-height=\"536\" aria-label=\"Das Bild zeigt die Ausstellungsansicht von Archie Rands &quot;Sons&quot; in der CFA Galerie.\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5002f49 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5002f49\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Archie Rand, <em>Untitled<\/em> <em>Series<\/em>, 2024, exhibition view, CFA Berlin \u00a9 CFA Gallery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f7ce38 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8f7ce38\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Viewing these works, it\u2019s important to note the dreamlike ambience of each painting. The uncanny landscapes of heraldic color, and the way each image seems to spatially unmap and delocalize itself, uprooting the work from anything like a recognizable place. This dislocation is achieved by way of the very gestures and pictorial strategies that ordinarily make representations of place possible. For all the airs of absurdism and comedy infusing these works, the viewer is left in the peculiar position of being a spectator\u2019s spectator. Cut off from time as much as place, <i>de jure<\/i> if not <i>de facto<\/i>, one feels softly assaulted by these carnivalesque images that are always happening <i>in medias res<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>In the 12 paintings comprising <i>Sons<\/i> (each, following Zurbar\u00e1n\u2019s lead, titled after one of Jacob\u2019s Biblical sons), the sense of whimsy and pathos derives largely from how foreign the imagery feels. As poet and art critic Barry Schwabsky points out in his excellent text accompanying the exhibition, Rand\u2019s imagination filters comic books, pulp fiction, and even westerns from a time when these kinds of things were more integral to the collective consciousness of American pop culture.<\/p>\n<p>Having been more or less submerged by digital media or films that endlessly pay homage to them\u2014from Instagram pages devoted to monster comics to movies by Quentin Tarantino\u2014Rand\u2019s reworking of Zurbar\u00e1n\u2019s imagery in terms of mid-20th-century nostalgia smacks of what Freud would call \u201cthe return of the repressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e8a235f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e8a235f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"963\" src=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/5-768x963.png\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-10734\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/5-768x963.png 768w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/5-239x300.png 239w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/5-816x1024.png 816w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/5.png 1062w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8e3567 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a8e3567\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Archie Rand, <em>Zebulon<\/em>, 2019 \u00a9 Courtesy of the artist\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-961d994 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"961d994\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Soldered to the Biblical armature Rand drapes his ludic imagery across, this return\u2014which leans on heroism generally\u2014takes on a bathetic aura in light of the absolutely hopeless situations many of the figures in Rand\u2019s paintings seem to discover themselves in. In <i>Zebulon<\/i> (2019), in particular, horror abounds as a medieval soldier (presumably a stand-in for Zebulon) flees the walls of a castle, while other soldiers behind him are visibly routed from their onslaught. Even the fish at the bottom of the canvas, which one might think would otherwise be symbolic and decorative, seems alarmed by the sheer declivity the general state of things has snowballed into.<\/p><p>Rand\u2019s method of painting here is a way of redistributing imagery that feels strange in itself. If these canvases could talk, if we could overhear them thinking, they would probably be horrified by their own strangeness. And yet the works are not without a decidedly ludological overtone\u2014that is, a logic borrowed from games, from systems governed by rules the viewer can intuit but never fully access. This is so if only because Rand refuses to let the viewer in completely. Standing before each of Rand\u2019s <i>Sons<\/i>, everything transpires as though the viewer were witnessing the clamor of someone else\u2019s dreams, shot through with all the warmth and intimacy that dreams recall upon awaking. As an outsider to this state of consciousness, as though gripped from within, he or she remains a sort of passive bystander, unlocking the doors to a universe that is only partially familiar.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9659e5b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9659e5b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"964\" src=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/6-768x964.png\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-10735\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/6-768x964.png 768w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/6-239x300.png 239w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/6-816x1024.png 816w, https:\/\/ato.vision\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/6.png 1060w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-91eec29 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"91eec29\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Archie Rand, <em>Issachar<\/em>, 2019 \u00a9 Courtesy of the artist<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49b7c60 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"49b7c60\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Yet what distinguishes these works from, say, Magritte, is how period-piece nostalgia (comics, westerns, anime) readily elides into a sense of temporality\u2014of activities unfolding over time\u2014suggested by the partitionings Rand imposes on his pictures. Where Magritte might use a bowler hat or a green apple as a clever form of misdirection, Rand\u2019s allusions to bygone media and the messages or tropes they once gave rise to function as an exposition of the sounding principle media itself brings to bear upon our lives. In this sense, \u201cmedia\u201d (in its univocal sense) is understood not as content but as condition.
