The words that we use to describe tapping that fricative synergy (archetype, the sublime, the ineffable) are also the words that we use, to borrow a phrase from Frank Zappa, to
dance about architecture — to describe what's indescribable about the collective experience, the existential electricity that ranks music above painting above poetry above literature (and film the twentieth century stepchild that falls somehow north and south of each).
The exhibition brings together works made in and
about Los Angeles ranging from his early photographs of the city to his most recent inkjet prints incorporating
dance and
architecture to his two «glass house» projects — buildings by Philip Johnson and Pierre Chareau.
