Description

Gordon Matta-Clark & Pope.L: Impossible Failures is a publication that explores the shared fixation of two artists on the problematics of architecture, language, institutions, scale, and value. The exhibition at 52 Walker features sweeping gestures that take into account shifting, decentralized zones, while the accompanying catalogue delves into societal, artistic, and structural failure. The book includes an introduction by curator Ebony L. Haynes, as well as a conversation between Haynes, Pope.L, and Hamza Walker, director of LAXART, discussing the visual, material, and conceptual similarities between their work. Writings by Gordon Matta-Clark highlight his interest in working with the void as material. This catalogue offers a unique perspective on the possibilities of failure as an artistic medium, featuring works by two artists who have made significant contributions to the examination of urban life and the risk inherent in art making.
