Exhibition Description

“I was invited again by Gordon Matta-Clark, to show on the entire first floor. I included myself and decided to invite eight other artists who were students and friends. We originally intended to work together on one piece, but it concluded with each artist making their own piece. We worked together for the week assigned to us; we cleaned up when the week was over and the space was taken over by other artists. It was more like a process piece”
