I haven’t forgotten about my last installment of the Spread Exhibition (which ended last week). I have yet to write my reflections on Laetitia Sonami and her selected artist Jacqueline Gordon.

Guy Overfelt, Taser (by proxy), single channel video, 1998 If you think all artists are quiet and sensitive, then you’ve probably never been a witness to Tony Labat and Guy Overfelt’s work. For Part III, I will be covering the pieces they selected for the Spread exhibition. For now, click here to view Guy Overfelt’s site. You can learn a bit more about Tony Labat here.
