Diana Thater - Between Science and Magic Ends April 17
Diana Thater's exhibition "Between Science and Magic" currently at the Santa Monica Museum of Art comes down April 17 2010.
"Although revealing the crew in this moment does serve to distance the piece from the slick universe of "movie magic," it simultaneously decreases the distance between the viewer and the work. Suddenly, you find yourself in on the joke, becoming privy to the "science" behind Thater's "magic." And in that moment, the work feels satisfying and generous, despite its aura of austerity."
