SIMON & SCHUSTER
Nikita Gale End of Subject
$35.00
The second title in the Clarion series spotlights the artist Nikita Gale, whose work applies the lens of material culture to examine the role authority plays in political, social, and economic systems
With a priority to immerse the audience in sound, light, and motion, Nikita Gale’s END OF SUBJECT subverts understandings of viewership and prompts spectators to question their subject hood amongst the installation and each other. Unrestricted by mediums, Gale engages with the architecture of her environment, stimulating all senses through site-specific installation and muses on the boundaries of performance art. She employs abolitionist ideology and institutional critique to simultaneously rupture and rebuild facets of the art institution.
With an introductory note by Ebony L. Haynes and a suite of poems by Harmony Holiday, this publication considers historical hierarchies of visibility. A contribution by the esteemed artist Andrea Fraser offers reflections on the various interventions at play during a gathering held in the exhibition.
