The Formless Body
Olga Korper Gallery is pleased to present The Formless Body, curated by Jarrett Earnest. The exhibition invites artists, poets, scholars, and archivists to reflect on the process and materiality of archival work, and their dedication to the stories that archives enable. The focus was on the artistic, intellectual, emotional and spiritual labor itself, attending to the complex problems of queer life in the wake of the AIDS crisis.
The exhibition includes new and historical paintings, sculpture, photographs and time-based media, equally pairing Canadians with artists from the US. The subject of the exhibition is not just the body but the spirit, the presence of the dead, and the transcendence of death, through form.
