Language: English ISBN: 9781644231258 A joining of two artists, exploring their shared fixation on the problematics of architecture, language, institutions, scale, and value "[The exhibition is] powerful and unhinged and overbuilt--a monument to the entropy of the postindustrial city, and the tenuous dance of its inhabitants." --New York Times Gordon Matta-Clark and Pope.L are esteemed for their respective interdisciplinary practices that examine the value and paradoxes of urban life as well as the risk inherent in art making. Utilizing performance, film, drawing, and various multimedia projects, the two artists often open up interstitial spaces by realizing sweeping gestures that take into account shifting, decentralized zones. Grounded in the concept of failure, the sixth exhibition at 52 Walker and its accompanying catalogue reconsider societal, artistic, and structural failure--and its related expressions of hope. With an introduction by the curator and director of 52 Walker, Ebony L. Haynes, this publication also includes a conversation between Haynes, Pope.L, and the director of LAXART, Hamza Walker, where they discuss the visual, material, and conceptual similarities between Pope.L's and Matta-Clark's work and what it means to treat the possibilities of failure as an artistic medium. Writings by Matta-Clark related to works in the exhibition highlight his interest in working with the void as material. Authorized Dealer Ships Fast From The USA!
