Tenneson and Dale’s new piece is starting to take shape. It’s called Canvassing and making it is causing eye ache, so heaven only knows what it will do to the viewer…
Extract from the Canvassing Manifesto:
The horizontal stripes will revive Agnes Martin’s piece ‘Untitled No.4’ (1983)
The pixels will revive Anne Truitt’s piece ‘Knight’s Heritage’ (1963)
The works are determined by their environment
The environment is the institution
The institution is the framework
The framework is bureaucratic
The bureaucracy inspires the works
The bureaucracy places the order
The bureaucracy orders the work
We do not make the order, the order is imposed on us
