NOT RECONCILED
Not Reconciled: First and Third / In Other Words, 1987/1991
First exhibited Whitney Museum, 1987. On-going series
The impetus for this series was a reflection on some of the theoretical perspectives around the notions of ‘history’ and ‘the construction of subjectivity’ as it differs among various cultures. First and Third, the first project in this series, grew out of my interest in narrative as a means of negotiating ideological differences between immigrant expectations and the contradictory messages of the American Dream with its promises of equality, personal freedom and so on. Subsequently I have realized projects, each with a very different theme, in several other cities including London, Rotterdam, Corscia and currently, Cairo. See Judith Barry articles in October 75 and October 123, MIT Press, Cambridge 1995 and 2008, respectively.
