“The Gatherers” at MoMA PS1: Where the Superfluous Stares Back
“The Gatherers”, 24 April – 6 October 2025, MoMA PS1 (Long Island City, New York, USA), curated by Ruba Katrib What remains when nothing is truly needed anymore? The question lingers around us as soon as we reach the third floor of MoMA PS1, wandering through the austere hallways of the fo
The Sculptural Unmaking: Urs Fischer and the Poetics of Disintegration
We’ve often found ourselves wondering what happens to large-scale installations once they’re dismantled. Not the portable kind, nor those conceived to be recreated elsewhere, but the massive, site-specific, time-bound constructions that seem impossible to preserve. When the exhibition ends, wher

Yvo Cho at Neue Alte Brücke, Frankfurt: A Gesture, a Ghost: Copper, Rice, and Shame in the Empty Room
