Flarf Fixie
Saturday 18 April, 2009
"Flarf Fixie" (Theoretical Spaces Gallery, Brooklyn) is the first exhibition of the artist collective New York Crew, kicking off their series of visual works, performances and theory installations intended to critically engage the notion of a "contemporary historical avant garde of writing." "Flarf Fixie" examines recent discourses of "Conceptual Writing" and "Flarf" via the constitutive financial ontologies of fine art objects and art-school, hipster culture. A future show in Echo Park, Los Angeles, will similarly deconstruct self-reflexive blind spots in the power narratives of L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E and their students.
