PERFORMA 2009: Terence Koh
Originally aired on
Sunday, November 22nd, 2009
Author, critic and curator Michael Rush sits down with artist Terence Koh to discuss his latest work, an untitled exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum, a Performa 2009 feature. This work, a stack of 33 glass cases containing white objects, is part of a larger body of monochrome work in which Koh explores the meanings of white in different cultures, ranging from purity to mourning. With its investigation of temporality and allusions to eventual death, it provides an introspective counterpoint to Koh’s flamboyant public persona. Sex and death are themes that run obsessively throughout all aspects of his work (34 minutes).
