A Portrait of Barbara Ess
Justin Lieberman, Mariah Robertson, and Stephanie Weber
Stephanie's Title: a former curatorial assistant from The Museum of Modern Art relieving herself of all real substance so that the artist, and you, his sychophantic followers, may speak of her in the most crude terms. However, the inhuman monstrosity called forth by this voiding does not belong to you. Rather it bears the seed of your eventual destruction.
Mariah's title: Justin Lieberman, you are my friend and I trust you. I trust that your intentions are honorable and your ideas worthy of exploration. And you have been there for me when I very much needed a friend. So for these reasons I have endeavored to fulfill your request by making a piece which is outside my zone of interest and possibly a violation of my adult life project. But having an interest in critical analysis of systems, I am willing to invert or violate those of my own in the spirit of open experimentation.
Justin's title: A photograph taken in the gallery by the artist Mariah Robertson documenting a curatorial assistant from The Museum of Modern Art's department of media and performance art enacting a scene from the opening chapter of Georges Bataille's 1928 novel The Story of the Eye. The props from the performance: A 1994 stainless steel Alessi reproduction of Marianne Brandt's 1928 Bauhaus work, Shallow Bowl, filled with organic milk from a local farm, 2012/2015
C-print on metallic paper, stainless stell bowl, local oranix milk and bottle, three titles
