Staying in the Shoe Box was an exhibition by AUGUSTUS THOMPSON that took place this winter at Howard St in New York. The show consisted of three chapters where a set of works circulated, moved, recollected, transformed, recomposed and varied in the gallery spaces during the course of one month.
Thanks to its multiple sequences, Staying in the Shoe Box seems to have been conceived as a laboratory for the exploration of exhibition’s practice, its formats and its forms. The experimental work done at Howard St not only retraced THOMPSON‘s intellectual development over the exhibition space, but also indicated the possibility of more time: time of the exhibition, time of past exhibitions and their ephemerality, time of upcoming exhibitions. Eventually all these periods organized the coexistence of the works themselves.
Thanks to a press release deliberately vague and yet open, Staying in the Shoe Box seems to illustrate the exhibition as a gathering moment, a process in an endless progress and also offers a glimpse into the artist’s thought in action.
Staying in the Shoe Box closed on December 20, 2015.
