Exhibition Label: "Conversation IV: Construction/Destruction," Emily Stamey, Apr-2008 Please take only one from each stack. “I love this particular piece by Gonzalez-Torres because of its ambiguity. Does “place” indicate the specific spot on the floor where the stacks sit, the Spencer Museum, the University of Kansas, the city of Lawrence, the state of Kansas, the United States . . . ? Or, is place something less specific, such as when someone asks if you’re in a “good place,” meaning that you’re content with your friends, your work, and your life? I love how this piece takes my thoughts in different directions, to different places. I also love the work’s generosity, its invitation to literally take these ideas with you.” - Emily Stamey, Co-Curator, 20/21 Gallery Please visit the Conversation Wall in our 20/21 Gallery (4th Floor) to continue this conversation about “place”.
