Description

For the last two decades, Josephine Meckseper?s practice has interrogated politics, capitalism, and art history through the juxtapositions of images and objects. Drawn from the visual and material cultures of protest and political activism, advertising, cinema, and early twentieth-century display architecture, Meckseper?s works are visually confrontational yet subtle, relying on strategies of infiltration rather than explicit positions. 00The publication features installation views from Meckseper?s recent exhibition at Timothy Taylor, a gallery of ?psychoimages,? and two newly commissioned texts. Independent curator and writer Piper Marshall considers ideas of détournement, the readymade, and base materialism in Meckseper?s oeuvre, while writer and editor Domenick Ammirati explores the significance of painting and text within Meckseper?s installations.
