Prmeutaonits


So we'll each make a work and place them together. Or side-by-side. Or within one another. I'd like to make a new work with glass clipframes. I'll use words then, clipframes and permutations. Maybe your poems in my frames? I like this idea of an accident waiting to happen. What if it's more specific to the space itself? Because it's quite small, it's only a storefront. The show's not up for long, so consider the duration. Roughness, too. And compression. Yours are modular in the same way as mine. They're permutations, visual rhymes of each other. That's what gives it meaning. It should be quite an empty gallery when you first look. Yes, the gaps are what will fill it. - DE & RG


For those of you not lucky enough to be able to make it, this is the 'Permutations' exhibition that opened last Thursday in New York at W/--- Gallery. It's a collaboration between Daniel Eatock and Rob Giampietro that consists of 1950's Concrete Poet Emmet Williams inspired word sculptures and some carefully composed, complimentary humble clip frame arrangements. Some lovely ideas executed brilliantly in this quirky little space.
