while i was in nyc last week i made a point to go check out the whitney biennial. overall there wasn't too much that i was excited about. that is, except for the series of paintings by storm tharp, which i really really like. a lot. unfortunately they were placed in a room with marianne vitale berating the art audience via video, which was both annoying and attention getting; so these paintings probably didn't get as much eye time as they should have.
did you see kerry tribe's video h.m.?
ReplyDeleteyeah, that was one of the few videos that i stayed for the whole way through.
ReplyDeleteme too. it was my favorite piece there.
ReplyDeletei noticed them!
ReplyDeletei also liked that room with the paintings on perception, as seen through the whitney's famous marcel breuer-designed windows. they were a bit dizzying, but interesting in concept. oof, i forgot to write down who they were by, however.
