A SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

A Few Notes on A Sentimental Journey, in medeas res, and the set of all sets that are not sets of themselves.

I began producing these small architectural models after the housing crisis, an event in which I am intimately involved. In 2008 I abandoned my house in upstate NY. The bank hasn't yet foreclosed on it, although I stopped paying the mortgage almost a year ago. They have sent me a lot of mail, most of which I haven't opened. Now I have an apartment in Greenpoint that I use as both a home and a studio. The models are a response to these events. They are modern architecture, closer to Frank Lloyd Wright or Bauhaus architecture than the house I lived in, although the detail report for the house listed its style as "country contemporary". I was thinking of Martin Kippenberger's architectures made from shipping palettes. Someone told me they reminded them of Thomas Schütte's little buildings. I was also thinking of socialist buildings from the DDR, and referring to those in hopes of impressing my German girlfriend. She doesn't even like the DDR though, I am the one with the "Ostalgie". She likes Kippenberger though, and she is a good socialist.
I was also making pieces I called "Floor Plans" and "Property Lines" out of the same types of material as the sculptures. They are shaped metal pieces that hang on the wall, like Knoebel. Originally I was going to pair them up with the sculptures, but I decided I wanted a greater disparity of material between the sculptures and paintings. So I kept them separate and decided they would just be metal shapes. Or maybe they will remain property lines.

I call the large collages "Super-Supplementals" because they are almost completely made out of supplemental material, ie; notes pertaining to other works, drawings and photographs regarding other works, posters for events that are over, receipts for art materials, notes from ex-girlfriends, parking tickets, a special t-shirt, letters of repremand from my landlord and the administration of the university where I teach, drawings from assignments I gave my students, packaging, etc. etc. It is a bit like a T.S. Elliot poem.

The humorist George Carlin describes a house as a "pile of stuff with a cover on it". So then I decided to make the little architecture into compressed versions of the collages, by filling them with the same kind of materials I had used in the collages. I put all my old sketchbooks in there, artworks by myself and others, and many other special things that I had been saving for years. Some people were surprised to see me incorporating some of these things into my artworks, and I told them they were being fetishists. Actually, I am not so tough. Going through all these old memories made me very emotional. I am a very sentimental person. My apartment is pretty empty now, although I have a seemingly infinite supply of "stuff", much of which is packed away in a storage space upstate. Sometimes I had to change the stuff to make it fit into the sculptures, cutting it into pieces, or compressing it in other ways. There was something digestive about that process, which reminded me of Dieter Roth.

Here, in A Sentimental Journey, you are treated to an intimate view of my papers both public and private. Perhaps in rifling through my drawers, you will be charmed by the drawing of a squid I made when I was eight years old. My father was pretty attached to it.

A SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

Quelques considérations, in medias res, sur A Sentimental Journey et la création d’ensembles qui ne sont pas des ensembles en soi.

J’ai commencé à réaliser ces petits modèles architecturaux après la crise immobilière qui m’a touché personnellement. En 2008, j’ai quitté ma maison située au nord de l’État de New York. La banque ne l’a toujours pas saisie bien que je ne rembourse plus mon emprunt depuis environ un an. Ils m’ont envoyé d’innombrables lettres qu’à la longue je n’ouvrais même plus. Aujourd’hui, je vis et travaille dans un appartement à Greenpoint. Ces œuvres rebondissent sur ces événements. Leur architecture moderne est plus proche de celle de Frank Lloyd Wright ou du Bauhaus que celle de la maison où je vivais et qui, selon son descriptif, était pourtant de style « campagnard contemporain ». J’ai pensé aux œuvres architecturales de Martin Kippenberger, réalisées avec des palettes de transport. Quelqu’un m’a dit qu’elles lui faisaient penser aux petits immeubles de Thomas Schütte. J’ai aussi pensé aux immeubles à appartements sociaux de la RDA et envisagé de m’inspirer d’eux dans l’espoir d’impressionner ma petite amie allemande. Elle est fan de Kippenberger et une socialiste convaincue, mais elle n’aime pas la RDA. C’est moi qui souffre d’ « ostalgie ».

J’ai aussi réalisé des œuvres que j’ai qualifiées de « plans » et « limites de propriété », dans les mêmes types de matériau que mes sculptures. Elles consistent en une série de pièces métalliques de différentes formes accrochées au mur, comme certaines œuvres d’Imi Knoebel.
Au départ, j’avais l’intention de les combiner avec les sculptures, mais finalement je me suis dit qu’il valait mieux faire une distinction plus nette entre les matériaux de mes œuvres en 3D et ceux de mes œuvres en 2D. J’ai donc fait cette distinction et ai décidé que je m’en tiendrais à ces pièces de métal. Il se pourrait aussi que je m’en tienne à des « limites de propriété ».

J’ai intitulé mes collages « Super-Supplementals » parce qu’ils sont réalisés principalement avec du matériel marginal comme des notes se rapportant à d’autres œuvres, des croquis et des photos d’autres œuvres, des affiches d’événements qui ont eu lieu, des billets doux de mes ex-petites amies, des tickets de parking, un T-shirt spécial, des lettres de réprimande de mon proprio et de l’administration de l’université où j’enseigne, des dessins réalisés par mes étudiants à ma demande, des emballages, etc. Un peu comme les poèmes de T.S. Elliot.

Selon l’humoriste George Carlin, une maison est « un tas de bric et de broc avec un couvercle dessus ». J’ai donc décidé de réaliser des sculptures à l’image de mes collages en les remplissant d’objets du même type que ceux entrant dans la composition de mes collages. J’y ai donc fourré tous mes anciens carnets de croquis, des œuvres à moi et d’autres artistes et une multitude d’objets que je collectionnais depuis des années. Certaines personnes étaient surprises de voir que j’intégrais de tels objets dans mes œuvres. Je les ai taxées de fétichistes. Je ne le pensais pas vraiment... mais brasser tous ces souvenirs me rend émotif. Je suis un grand sentimental. Bien que je dispose d’une infinité d’objets, mon appartement est aujourd’hui pratiquement vide car la plus grande partie d’entre eux sont des caisses empilées dans un débarras. Parfois il m’arrive de devoir transformer ces objets, de devoir les couper ou les comprimer, afin qu’ils entrent dans mes sculptures. Ce processus, qui n’est pas sans avoir certains points communs avec celui de la digestion, me fait penser à Dieter Roth.

Dans A Sentimental Journey, je vous entrouvre la porte de mon univers intime en vous faisant découvrir une partie de mes archives privées. Peut-être qu’en fouinant dans mes tiroirs, vous serez séduit par ce calamar que j’ai dessiné à l’âge de huit ans. Mon père y était très attaché.

A SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY

Aantekeningen bij ‘A Sentimental Journey’, in medias res, en de set van alle sets die niet uit zichzelf een set zijn.

Met deze architectuurmodelletjes ben ik begonnen na de crisis in de woningsector. Ik werd trouwens zelf het slachtoffer van die crisis.. In 2008 verliet ik mijn huis aan de rand van New York. Ongeveer een jaar geleden stopte ik met het afbetalen van de hypotheek, maar de bank heeft ze nog steeds niet geëxecuteerd. Ze stuurden mij de ene brief na de andere, maar de meeste liet ik ongeopend. Nu heb ik een appartement in Greenpoint dat ik tegelijk als woning en als atelier gebruik. De modellen zijn een reactie op deze gebeurtenissen. Het gaat om moderne architectuur die dichter bij Frank Lloyd Wright en het Bauhaus staat dan het huis waarin ik woonde, hoewel zijn stijl in het detailrapport werd omschreven als ‘landelijk eigentijds’. Ik dacht aan Martin Kippenberger en zijn pallet-architecturen. Iemand zei me dat mijn modellen hem deden denken aan de gebouwtjes van Thomas Schütte. Zelf dacht ik ook aan de socialistische architectuur van de DDR. Op die manier hoopte ik indruk te maken op mijn Duitse vriendin. Zij houdt echter niet van de DDR, ík ben degene die aan ‘Oostalgie’ lijdt. Maar ze houdt wel van Kippenberger, en ze is een goede socialiste.

De stukken die ik ‘plattegronden’ en ‘eigendomsgrenzen’ heb genoemd, zijn van hetzelfde soort materiaal als de sculpturen. Het zijn vormgegeven metalen stukken die aan de muur hangen, een beetje zoals werk van Imi Knoebel. Aanvankelijk wilde ik ze combineren met de sculpturen, maar uiteindelijk wilde ik een duidelijker onderscheid tussen het materiaal van de sculpturen en dat van de schilderijen. Dus hield ik ze apart en besliste ik dat ze niet meer zouden zijn dan metalen vormen. Het kan ook zijn dat ze eigendomsgrenzen blijven.

De grote collages noem ik ‘superaanvullingen’. Ze bestaan immers bijna volledig uit aanvullend materiaal: aantekeningen bij andere werken, tekeningen en foto’s in verband met andere werken, posters voor evenementen die al voorbij zijn, ontvangstbewijzen van aankopen van materiaal, briefjes van ex-vriendinnen, parkeerbiljetten, een speciaal T-shirt, berispingen van mijn huiseigenaar en van de administratie van de universiteit waar ik doceer, tekeningen die mijn studenten voor mij moesten maken, verpakkingen, et cetera. Ze zien eruit als gedichten van T.S. Eliot.

De humorist George Carlin beschrijft een huis ergens als ‘een hoop spullen met een deksel erop’. Van daaruit heb ik de kleine architecturen opgevat als gebalde versies van de collages: ik heb ze gevuld met hetzelfde soort materiaal als de collages. Al mijn oude schetsboeken zitten erin, kunstwerken van mijzelf en anderen, en heel wat dingen die ik jarenlang heb bijgehouden. Aan mensen die verbaasd waren dat ik sommige van deze dingen in mijn kunst verwerkte, heb ik gezegd dat ze fetisjisten waren, maar eigenlijk ben ik niet zo’n harde: de confrontatie met deze herinneringen was erg emotioneel. Ik ben een sentimenteel iemand. Mijn appartement ziet er nu vrij leeg uit, al heb ik nog meer ‘materiaal’ voorhanden – nou ja, voorhanden, het meeste zit netjes ingepakt in een opslagruimte ver weg. Soms moest ik die dingetjes veranderen om ze in de sculptuur te doen passen: ze in stukken snijden, ze samendrukken... Het was alsof ik iets aan het verteren was; Dieter Roth, weet je wel.

Hier, in ‘A Sentimental Journey’, wordt u getrakteerd op een kijkje in mijn privé- en openbare papieren. ‘Oh, wat leuk!’, zult u misschien zeggen als u in mijn laden rommelt en de tekening van een pijlinktvis ontdekt die ik heb gemaakt toen ik acht was. Mijn vader was er erg aan gehecht.
