Critical Dictionary
WORK
1/27/2012 to 2/25/2012
Opening hours: 12–5.30pm, Wednesday–Saturday (excluding public holidays)
Critical Dictionary declassifies selected terms in a playful manner to emphasise the open-ended, provisional and unfinished nature of language. The exhibition brings together an eclectic plethora of themes including: Flickr Sunset, Greenwich Meridian, Mycelium, Overt Research, Pencil Test and War Primer. The exhibition is inspired by Georges Bataille’s infamous anti-dictionary for the dissident Surrealist journal Documents. It explores and expands the previous incarnations of Evans’ Critical Dictionary project, which was first developed as the online art journal criticaldictionary.com and later published as an anthology by the same name by Black Dog Publishing.
