The exhibition 'Towards the End of the Beginning', from Lawrence Weiner - specifically made for this space - will open Thursday the 9th of May around 22.00 h.
We will be showing a installation/sculpture presented in four parts as well as it will be shown two DVD films: Wild Blue Yonder (2001-02) and Blue Moon Over (2001-02).
Over more than three decades of 'language + the materials referred to', have been the forming factors in Lawrence Weiner’s artistic practice, and the communication about ideas and materials in the physical world have formed the parameters of his work. His work became known by the removal of the physical element of sculpture and by the insistence on common, accessible systems of distribution. Since 1967-68 that he develops a sculpture based on language that not only assumes the form of installation as well as a whole group of supports such as books, comics, posters, songs and urban interventions, and art for public spaces. He has been using film and video as systems of presentation since 1970.
