The Materialization of Life into alternative economies. A curated project with different people, this time from the art world, showing different notions of economy and distribution: Paula Hayes/Wild Friends for collaborative economy, Joseph Grigely for information economy, On Kawara for gift economy, Gordon Matta-Clark for business economy, and Mierle Laderman Ukeles for maintenance economy. My reasons were to offer another reading of Lippard's idea of conceptual art as a dematerialization of the art object and, instead, suggest that perhaps, for some, it was actually not so much about the art object but about life, about a materialization of life.
*Exhibition was recreated in Ljubjana for the Moderna galerija/Museum of Modern Art during the exhibition “Worthless/Invaluable” curated by Carlos Basualdo. Also see publications. |
