SF MOMA: The Art of Participation

San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
8 November, 2008 - 8 February, 2009
8 November, 2008 - 8 February, 2009
It seems the art world has finally seen its first museum scale exhibition devoted entirely to relational art. A marginalized discourse no more?
Exhibition description:
"Looking back nearly 60 years across a wide spectrum of genres and media, this exhibition examines how artists have engaged members of the public as essential collaborators in the art-making process. Works by more than 40 artists will be on view, from early performance and conceptual pieces by such pioneers as John Cage, Lygia Clark, Dan Graham, and Hans Haacke to contemporary projects by Jochen Gerz, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Lynn Hershman Leeson, and Erwin Wurm, among others. Encompassing restagings of historic installations as well as new commissions that invite your direct participation, the exhibition will change in form and content as you and other visitors contribute — either at the museum or online."
