Gordon Matta Clark @ Whitney

GMCT 2142.sm.jpg

Gordon Matta Clark Retrospective opens at the Whitney today! I regret not being born earlier, so I could see his building dissections on location. I believe he has been much more influential than anyone has ever acknowledged, and I think he is one of the few “Giants.” Why has his status remained relatively quiet for so long?

    CJ - it appears to me that we have a near identical ‘taste’ in things art. This is good timing by the WHITNEY. also the new book on him looks good.

    Not “taste,” but a similar respect for risk and invention!
