I know nothing of the weather when I know it is either raining or not raining. Works from: Erica Baum, Tom Holmes, Justin Matherly, Andrea Merkx, Jenny Perlin, Vicente Razowith a special project by Ellie Ga. Curated by Gabrielle GiattinoThe title of this exhibition comes from Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logioco-Philosophicus, the carefully regimented series of statements about the nature of logic. The seven artists in this exhibition activate strategies that willingly defy the necessary usefulness of logic and language. They create nuanced works through gestures thatare at turns elegant or absurd, and in so doing affirm poetic and political possibilities of stretching or even misusing the structuresof language. Using simple operations akin to tautology and contradiction, the works confirm that language is not a perfect mirror for the world.Image: Tom Holmes, I Make Stuff Up, 2008, inkjet print, 11×17 in.
