#CrossingBrooklyn features more than one hundred works from 35 artists who work in virtually every medium, including painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, installation, video, and performance, linked only by place and by an engagement with the modern world. Over the next several weeks, Brooklyn Magazine will be rolling out profiles of ten artists who appear in the exhibit.“Gordon Hall’s piece […], ‘Read me that part a-gain, where I disin-herit everybody,' is a group of geometric structures that double as the set for an hour-long lecture-performance that will be presented four times over the exhibit’s duration. The title is drawn from a quotation in John Cage’s 1959 'Lecture on Nothing.’'This piece explores the ways that knowledge is embodied, through the history of minimalist sculpture and lecture-performances,’ Hall tells me. 'It is sculptural and research-based and performed.’ The performances combine the sculptural objects, sound (in the form of a text written and read by Hall), projected images, and physical action as Hall moves among, on top of, and around the objects.”More on Gordon Hall and his lecture-performance in #CrossingBrooklyn here.Photo: Gordon Hall, “Read me that part a-gain, where I disin-herit everybody.” (2014) -- source link
