INDEX: CONCEPTUALISM IN CALIFORNIA FROM THE PERMANENT COLLECTION

LINK
Opening Sunday August 24th, 11AM-6PM, $5
08.24.08 - 12.15.08



Index: Conceptualism in California from the Permanent Collection draws upon MOCA’s substantial holdings of works by artists who have lived and worked in California and have contributed to the international lexicon of conceptual art. Curated by MOCA Curator Philipp Kaiser and Curatorial Assistant and Project Coordinator Corrina Peipon, the exhibition surveys the evolution of conceptual and post-studio practices by highlighting significant individual works alongside multiple works by artists in the collection. Acknowledging California artists’ particular contributions to defining and expanding art historical notions of conceptual art, the scope of this exhibition reaches from the proto-conceptual disciplines of artists Wallace Berman and Bruce Conner to the groundbreaking work produced during the mid-1960s, ‘70s, and into the ‘80s by artists John Baldessari, Chris Burden, Guy de Cointet, David Ireland, David Lamelas, and Alexis Smith, among others.




In recognition of the undeniable legacy of this period in California art, this exhibition also presents post-conceptual explorations by artists that were influenced by the preceding generations. Building upon the dialogue initiated by their mentors, artists Cindy Bernard, Andrea Fraser, Mike Kelley, Mathias Poledna, Stephen Prina, Pae White, and Christopher Williams continually redefine the boundaries of their various mediums and subjects through rigorous scrutiny and serious, though often humorous, analysis.

12pm - 9 pm • Free Admission

The cool thing about this; Both MoCAs are free from 5-8, next time I'm going there at 5. Marlene Dumas was the show at the non-Geffen one, and yes I still don't believe the hype. And the permanent collection was closed for reinstallation, I'll be going back soon.
Saw Nancy Popp at Phantom Galleries, which was great. And a few other good shows like Robert Reynolds'
"From Babylon to Baghdad"
