+ ADD AN EVENT
SculptureCenter is pleased to present the exhibition Double Life, which brings together a group of artists that share a performance-based approach to sculpture. Common strategies include inhabiting the physical site of exhibition, leaving indexical marks on images of their own making, and re-contextualizing or re-animating various objects, images, and readymades. Adopting a sense of synchronistic time that is at once immediate but also located in moments of reflection, these artists investigate themes such as identity construction, authorship, and alienation amidst current conditions that are multicultural, hyper-mediated, and increasingly focused on self-presentation. Double Life examines the role of the contemporary artist and our collective nature as self-performers, as well as our identification with, and attachments to everyday objects.
