“Frozen Lakes” at Artist Space
January 20  March 24, 2013
Opening: January 19, 6–8 PM
38 Greene Street #3
In his essay accompanying the 1977 exhibition “Pictures at Artists Space,” and in a subsequent text published by October in 1979, the art historian Douglas Crimp introduced the work of a generation of artists, and their use of “quotation,” “excerptation,” “framing,” and “staging,” that has since become synonymous with the postmodern relationship to pictures.  Frozen Lakes examines the prominence that these artistic strategies have for a generation of artists born after “Pictures.”  Contributing artists: Shadi Habib Allah, Ed Atkins, Banu Cennetoglu, Aaron Flint Jamison, Tobias Kaspar, Metahaven, Ken Okiishi, Charlotte Prodger, James Richards, and Slavs and Tatars
