Great Post by Carol Diehl (by way of Chris Jagers) on texts from the Whitney Biennial: Impenetrable prose from the Whitney Biennial
My favorite:
This early work’s active impediment of a unified spectatorial vantage point has led the artist to investigate, in his words, “a variegated relationship between paintingâ€â€a practice whose ossified discursive and speculative value I want to mark with its various economic and technical support systemsâ€â€and the contradictions of discursive engagements that subsist largely outside the site of display, but which are value-producing sites nonetheless.
Just gorgeous.
Those quotes were complete non-sense … So funny!
