poster for Michael Dean "Tolerance"

This event has ended.

Borrowing its title from the eponymous play written by Dean for this occasion, the exhibition explores the impenetrable distance/space that exists between object and its trace, between past experiences and how they are re-constructed/re-membered. Taking the form of posters, drawings, sculptures and performance, Dean's practice examines the physical properties of language, as well as its politics of authorship and autonomy. Hermetic monuments, texts appropriated from untraceable sources and cryptic typographies are the basic elements of the artist’s obscurely seductive language, a language that deliberately provides no accessible meaning while requesting the viewer to project significance onto the works.
