Vito Acconci & Hans Ulrich Obrist: May 12
Vito Acconci & Hans Ulrich Obrist
Tuesday, May 12th, 8:30pm
e-flux, 41 Essex Street
Admission is Free
This conversation is organized in the context of Unbuilt Roads.
Unlike unrealized architectural projects, which are frequently exhibited and circulated, unrealized artworks tend to remain unnoticed or little known. But perhaps there is another form of artistic agency in the partial expression, the incomplete idea, the projection of a mere intention? Starting on Saturday, April 11th, the book project Unbuilt Roads: 107 Unrealized Projects has been on view as a public archive at e-flux. Bringing together descriptions of unrealized projects by 107 artists, the selection constitutes the result of several years of international research conducted in the late 90s by Obrist and Guy Tortosa. The exhibition will remain on view through Saturday, May 16th.
