Videos: Curator Peter Eleey on "The Quick and the Dead"


Walker Art Center curator Peter Eleey discusses two works in the exhibition The Quick and the Dead, which opens tonight. Tobias Rehberger's All your last week's desires, which features 11 lamps that replicate and respond to the lighting conditions at the museum one week prior to the moment you're looking at it. Pierre Huyghe's Timekeeper, a simple work made by sanding down a spot on the gallery wall revealing the history of the room, like rings on a tree. (Kudos to the Walker on this: hopefully, many more such videos are in the works.)
