The Assistants
18 Jan, 2013 - 23 Feb, 2013
The Assistants explores the transitive potential of art, including how artworks can take on attendant guises and play assisting roles, serving as custodians of memory while also producing resistant gestures and deviant substitutions. The exhibition features new works developed specifically for this context, including several by artists who will be seen in Los Angeles for the first time, as well as a number of postwar works of historical importance that help give contour to its field of inquiry.
curated by Fionn Meade
Uri Aran, Nairy Baghramian, Matthew Brannon, Andrea B眉ttner, Rosalind Nashashibi, Adrian Piper, Laure Prouvost, Dieter Roth / Bj枚rn Roth, Slavs and Tatars, Mierle Laderman Ukeles, Cathy Wilkes
