Damian Loeb: The Constructed Image, 1996 – 2006, was part of the Homecoming exhibition at The Aldrich in 2006. 

Born in New Haven, Connecticut, Loeb grew up in Ridgefield—as a teen serving as a Museum attendant at The Aldrich—and now lives in New York City.   He acknowledges through his work the inescapable fact of the power and primacy of photographically-based imagery in today's world. Despite this view, Loeb is interested in the craft of painting, and how painting can mediate the gap between popular culture and traditional painting concerns.

Recent solo exhibitions include Damian Loeb: New Paintings, Jablonka Galerie, Cologne, Germany; Metropolitan, Mario Diacono at Ars Libri, Boston; Horror/Sci-Fi, Mary Boone Gallery, New York; Public Domain, Mary Boone Gallery (Chelsea), New York, 2001; and MANGOS, White Cube Gallery, London, 1999

Selected group exhibitions include View Five: Westworld, Mary Boone Gallery, New York; Hypermental: Rampant Reality 1950-2000 from Salvador Dali to Jeff Koons, Kunsthaus Zurich, Switzerland (traveled to Hamburger Kunsthalle, Hamburg, Germany); Tension, Robert Miller Gallery, New York.
