Description
Newly compiled by Graham, Classic and Recent Installations/Pavilions 1974-2008 features video documentation of ten installations, including a series of the architectural sculptures that he terms pavilions. Typically composed of transparent or mirrored glass, and often placed outdoors in public sites, these structures further Graham s investigation into public and private spaces and invite a dialogue between the viewer and the environment, viewing and being viewed. Graham has written: The pavilion structures are psychologically and socially self-reflective. There is a dialectic between the perception of oneself and other bodies perceiving themselves, making the spectator conscious of him or herself as a body. Covering a span of twenty-five years, this new compilation includes video documentation of the following ten installations: Present Continuous Pasts (1974) at the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Sculpture/Pavilion for Argonne (1978-81) at Argonne National Laboratories, Illinois; Sculpture/Pavilion II (1985) at Moderna Musett, Stockholm; 2-2 Way Mirror Half Cylinders Off-Aligned (2000) from the ING Belgium Bank Collection, Brussels; Two V s (2002-2005) from the Belgacom Corporate Collection, Brussels; Two-way Mirror Half Cylinder Half Hedge (2005) from the collection of Peggy and Ralph Burnet in Wayzata Minnesota; From Rococo to Mannerism (2007) at Marian Goodman Gallery in Paris; Pavilion for Sonic Youth Exhibition (2008) at Museon in Bolzano, Italy; Straight 2-way Mirror Pane Bisecting Curved 2-way Mirror for Novartis Campus, Basel (2008); and For the Daughter of Jeppe Heim/Splash (2008), from a private collection in Australia.
