My friend Chris Kenny has a wonderful piece in the amazing show SLASH, at the MAD Museum, one of those shows that could so easily slip through the cracks because of what it is up against—William Kentridge at MOMA being one example. The MAD Museum is a gem that has yet to become a must go to destination for visitors to art museums in New York.
The show includes the work of numerous artists who draw with scissors, tear, crumple and cut, glue and battle with text, wallpaper, cardboard and even film the process. There are familiar names: Kara Walker and Oliver Herring but there is not a piece in the show that disappoints. If you read this go.
