Measurement: Cheers

Part 3 of the Measurement series - approximate measurements in video referencing Mel Bochner's 1969 piece, Measurement: Shadow.

"It was in the Measurements in 1969 that I found a vehicle to express some of the things I had been thinking about. That was the work in which conception and perception cut across each other. The Measurements were about occupying real space and yet seeing it as an idea... In these installations you experience the physical space of the room and you experience a conception of that space... That led to certain theoretical questions...how can the space, or how can the world, contain an idea about itself? How can the two things overlap? Where are the boundaries?" -Building a Language, Mel Bochner: 1973-1985
