EXHIBITION
Mary Helena Clark, USA, digital, 19 min, 2022 Pivoting between two stories of women and their relationships with objects—a Swedish woman’s marriage to the Berlin Wall, and a suffragist’s hatcheting of Velásquez’s The Toilet of Venus—Mary Helena Clark’s Exhibition is a maze-like tour through images and artifacts, a dense cryptography of the forms and objects that hold us in.—Leo Goldsmith I’m not a woman. I’m a doorknob.—Agnes Martin
