Josiah McElheny presenting at MoMA

This guy loves to talk about bullshit symbolism instead of just saying this looks good. It has a nice style.

I loved Josh's work when I saw two different pieces this weekend. And while I'm grateful for the illumination provided in this video, the video is a bit long for our TV-generation's attention span.

Gorgeous stuff at the MFA and ICA Boston.

vermeer1 has never heard of director's commentaries on dvds either, i'm betting

Form Without Shadow: This has caused a lot of dialogue and thought here. Can the rules be bent. You bet. A utopia that can never be built. But Josiah is implying they can be represented. Subversion by recasting. Thusly we have started constructing a VideoResponse called: Form Without Shadow. What intrigues me is how this has become personal. "We are the forms without shadow," I am told. Reflective surfaces. We are now walking through that landscape. The artists speak. -- Tim

if the work was good it could stand on it's own. it wouldn't need a 15 minute lecture
