Drawing Restraint
I’m elated to announce that the SFMOMA will soon welcome conceptual artist Matthew Barney’s DRAWING RESTRAINT series. Video, photographs, and sculpture from parts 1-8 of the DRAWING RESTRAINT series will be featured.
Highlights include Barney’s latest film, DRAWING RESTRAINT 9, in which the artist explores the tension between his provocative, pomo-infused vision and Japanese tradition. Set aboard a whaling ship in Nagasaki, his vaseline sculptures also return in massive form, morphing as they chart the nearly silent dialogue between Barney and his co-star, the quintessential Bjork. This will be only U.S. stop for the exhibition.
