INFORMATION: WORKS FROM THE 1970s
FElix Art Fair - Hollywood roosevelt Hotel
February 17-20, 2022
Room 1102
Thomas Solomon Art Advisory is proud to present Information: Works from the 1970s, at Felix Art Fair 2022, Room 1102 . This unique presentation revisits Kynaston McShine's seminal group exhibition Information that took place at MOMA in 1970. The Felix exhibition expands the original exhibition by including additional works by conceptual artists that span the years 1970-1979. This exhibition is not a definitive overview, but a small tribute to the original 1970 MOMA exhibition and the artists' importance in expanding the idea of art beyond traditional categories.
The original MOMA exhibition included artists Robert Barry, John Baldessari, Dennis Oppenheim, Ed Ruscha, and Lawrence Weiner. Information: Works from the 1970s extends the original exhibition by including artists Laurie Anderson, Christopher Knowles, John Knight, Allen Ruppersberg, Alexis Smith, and William Wegman.The artists in the exhibition share the use of language and expand what art is and how it is viewed and perceived. The exhibition will include works on paper, books, assemblages, collages and wall-works.
The exhibition will rotate daily with several artist’s works remaining on view throughout the week. Please see our schedule below for more details.
