“Macuga blurs the boundaries between collector, curator and artist,” explained Objects in Relation curator at Tate Britain, Rachel Tant.
“Her medium is her method of selection; her exhibitions become exhibits in themselves. By re-contextualising material, Macuga disrupts conventional reading and suggests new possibilities and alternative narratives.”
Studies 5 and 6 (2007) by Goshka Macuga will be on show in Chichester for the duration of the exhibition Eileen Agar: An Eye for Collage, until March 15 2009.
