Carolee Schneemann

SMW solo exhibition at mistral, Amsterdam (2021). The exhibition opens up the process of the ‘monumental’ 18-month collaborative performance Gift Science Archive (GSA) to the public for haptic engagements with the artist’s working and archiving processes. Visitors are invited to peruse the GSA archive database and to pull materials from the collection for a closer look and, over a cup, for a story. The ‘research experience’ is thus set into relational motion, by conversations – a central part of Murray-Wassink’s practice. Co-curated by Megan Hoetger (If I Can’t Dance) together with Radna Rumping and Huib Haye van der Werf (mistral).

Date: 25.02.20. Location: Rijksakademie, studio manege. Images of installation activities in the studio, with SMW, MH and Roger Cremers who assists with hanging a large vinyl print and the framed work dedicated to Carolee Schneemann. Unpacking materials. Sands holding a drawing with a clock and 'tyranny' text, a gift for Roger. The beginnings of making the horse cloud on the studio wall.

Presentation for the If I Can’t Dance Edition VIII – Ritual and Display Introductory Kick-Off Weekend. The artist’s textile paintings adorn the space throughout the weekend. Here, he shares on his multimedia practice, concentrating on its early beginnings in 1993, in a slide show that makes clear his reliance on feminist figures like Carolee Schneeman, Hannah Wilke and Adrian Piper. He then dances before a dual projection – Schneemann video and footage from his studio – in and out of step with ‘Starlight’ by The Supermen Lovers.
