Amy Sillman: Temporary Object
We could compare it to storyboards, as indeed, the gallery does, but Sillman allows us more control than we’re given when watching a movie. We’re not simply passive viewers; through our agency the objects are activated. In this way, though monochromatic and hard and made after the moves of painting—and therefore unlike Sillman’s limpid drawings, with their transparent medium and evident switchbacks—Temporary Object bears an important resemblance to the drawings included throughout and testifies to the artist’s process.
